A silent installation may be preferred when automating the installation of one or more Hybrid Data Pipeline servers. The silent installation process hinges on the creation of a response file. The response file is a text file that you create (for example, installer.properties) with the product installer. You begin by generating a response file, you then tailor the response file to your environment, and you then perform the silent installation.
If you are using the silent installation process to deploy Hybrid Data Pipeline behind a load balancer, the response file generated during the initial installation must be modified to install the server on any additional nodes. For a GUI generated response file, you will need to designate the name of an additional node with the D2C_HOSTNAME option. For a console generated response file, you will need to designate the name of an additional node with the D2C_HOSTNAME_CONSOLE option.
A silent installation requires performing the following steps:
You must create a response file using the installer as described in either of the following topics:
You must edit the response file to suit your environment. Response files differ depending on whether you generate them using the installer in GUI mode or console mode. Editing the response file is described in the following topics:
