Installing in Silent Mode

In the silent mode, the installer does not prompt for inputs during installation but reads the inputs from a response file. By default, the installer uses the TIBCOUniversalInstaller-product_version.silent file, which is included in the directory that contains the universal installer.

Prerequisites

Prepare your system for the installation. See Installation Requirements and Pre-installation Tasks.
You can customize the silent installer as follows:
  • Make a backup copy of the TIBCOUniversalInstaller-product_version.silent file and edit the file itself. You can then run the silent installer with or without the response file argument.
  • Make a copy of the TIBCOUniversalInstaller-product_version.silent file and name the copy. You can then run the silent installer, passing in your custom response file.

Procedure

  1. Make a copy of the TIBCOUniversalInstaller.silent file and name the file, for example, myfilename.silent.
  2. Using a text editor, open the copied file and update the installation location and features to install.
  3. Run the silent installer with or without the optional response file.
    • Windows: TIBCOUniversalInstaller.cmd -silent [-V responseFile="myfile.silent" ]
    • UNIX: TIBCOUniversalInstaller.bin -silent [-V responseFile='myfile.silent']

What to do next

After exiting the installer, perform the post-installation tasks and configuration. You can run TIBCO Configuration Tool in the GUI mode, console mode, or silent mode.
  1. Continue with Uninstallation.
  2. Run TIBCO Configuration Tool.
