TIBCO BusinessEvents® Enterprise Edition 6.3.1

# Installing in Silent Mode

In the silent mode, you can run the installer without user input by pointing the installer to an existing response file, which contains installation parameters.

A default response file is included with the product. Edit the file in a text editor and provide all non-default values as needed before launching the silent installation. For example, ensure that the `installationRoot` and `createNewEnvironment` attributes are set correctly. The default response file has the name:

TIBCOUniversalInstaller.silent

The best practice is to make a copy of the default response file, then edit that file and use it for the installation.

If you invoke the Universal Installer with only the `-silent` argument, the installer reads the input from default response file.

If you make a copy of the default response file, and rename it, you must provide the name of the response file when invoking the Universal Installer. This done by passing the following arguments on the command line:

-silent -V responseFile="filename.silent"

where, filename is the name you gave the response file.

Procedure
1. Open the physical media or download the software package from https://edelivery.tibco.com.

   For downloading you will need your username and password. If you did not receive a username and password, contact TIBCO Technical Support.

2. Extract the contents of the package to a temporary directory.
3. Navigate to the temporary directory to which you extracted the installation package.
4. Make a copy of the default response file, open the copy with a text editor, then update the parameters as needed.

   The response file contains comments that describe each of the parameters. You can save the file using any desired name.

5. Enter the following command to start the installation (these assume you have copied the response file and saved it as MyResponseFile.silent):
   Microsoft Windows:

       TIBCOUniversalInstaller.cmd -silent -V responseFile="MyResponseFile.silent"

   Linux:

       TIBCOUniversalInstaller-platform_acronym.bin -silent -V responseFile="MyResponseFile.silent"

   Note: If you copy the response file to another directory, not the temporary directory containing the installer, you need to provide the absolute path of the response file.

   A line like similar to the following is written to the installer log file when installation completes:

       The installation has completed. Please check the log file for additional information.
