Silent Installation

The silent installation is useful if you want to create a response file that can be distributed and run on multiple computers to create an identical installation of the product on each computer. To perform the silent installation, you must distribute the response file and the appropriate installer file with supporting installation zip files.
*Java installer
PROGRESS_DATADIRECT_JDBC_INSTALL.jar
PROGRESS_DATADIRECT_JDBC_database_n.n.n_INSTALL.iam.zip
PROGRESS_DATADIRECT_JDBC_COMMON_n.n.n_INSTALL.iam.zip
PROGRESS_DATADIRECT_JDBC_DOCUMENTATION_n.n.n_INSTALL.iam.zip
*Windows installer
PROGRESS_DATADIRECT_JDBC_INSTALL.exe
PROGRESS_DATADIRECT_JDBC_database_n.n.n_INSTALL.iam.zip
PROGRESS_DATADIRECT_JDBC_COMMON_n.n.n_INSTALL.iam.zip
PROGRESS_DATADIRECT_JDBC_DOCUMENTATION_n.n.n_INSTALL.iam.zip
Important: If running the Java installer on Windows, you must either select a non-system directory as the installation directory or turn off User Account Controls.
A silent installation requires performing the following steps:
*Creating the response file. You can create this file in either of the following ways:
*Using the installer. See Creating a Response File Using the GUI Installer for instructions.
*Using a text editor. See Creating a Response File Using a Text Editor for instructions.
*Performing the silent installation. See Performing the Silent Installation for instructions.
Important: Your product license may limit the number of CPUs that can exist on the machine on which the product is installed. This limit also is imposed on any machine on which the silent installation is performed. If you need to upgrade your product license, contact your Progress DataDirect sales representative.
