Installation Modes

Three installation modes are available: GUI, console, and silent.

GUI Mode

In the GUI mode, the installer presents panels that allow you to make choices about product selection, product location, and so on. To invoke the installer in GUI mode, double-click the executable.

Console Mode

Console mode allows you to run the installer from the command prompt or terminal window. This is useful if your machine does not have a GUI environment.

Silent Mode

Silent mode installs the product using either default settings or a response file that was saved during an earlier installation. Silent mode installs the product without prompting you for information.

P2Installer Mode

In the P2Installer mode, get the installer .zip file for your platform and extract it. P2Installer mode installs the product prompting you for information.
