Installation Modes

You can run the installer in one of the following modes: GUI, console, or silent. Each mode is supported on all platforms.

Mode Description
GUI In GUI mode, invoke the installer by double-clicking the executable file TIBCOUniversalInstaller. The installer presents windows that you can use to select the product components, its location, and so on. Proceed through the installation process by providing your input.

For more information, see Installing in GUI Mode.

Console In console mode, you invoke the installer from a command prompt or a terminal window, and the installer prompts for values on the console. You can move through the installation process by responding to the prompts.

This mode is useful if your machine does not have a Windows environment.

For more information, see Installing in Console Mode.

Silent In silent mode, the installer installs without prompting you for information. Silent mode either installs using the default settings or uses a response file that was saved during an earlier installation. In this mode:
  • If no response file has been recorded earlier, invoke the installer with the -silent argument to use the default installation parameters.
  • If a response file exists, invoke the installer with the arguments -silent -V responseFile="<responseFileName>" to use the values specified in the response file.

For more information, see Installing in Silent Mode.
