Installing in the Silent Mode

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

A default response file named TIBCOUniversalInstaller_clarity-dt_version.silent is packaged with the TIBCO Universal Installer. Edit the response file with information about your environment before launching the silent installation. 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 installer with only the -silent argument, the installer reads the input from default response file.
If you invoke the installer with the -silent -V responseFile=<filename> argument, the installer reads the input from the specified response file.

Procedure

Navigate to the temporary directory to which you extract the installation package and open the TIBCOUniversalInstaller_clarity-dt_version.silent file.
Update the response file directly. Or make a copy of the response file first and then update the copied file.
On a command line, navigate to the temporary directory to which you extract the installation package.
Enter the following command to start the installation:
- On Windows: TIBCOUniversalInstaller.cmd -silent [-V responseFile="filename"]
- On Linux: TIBCOUniversalInstaller-platform_acronym.bin -silent [-V responseFile="filename"]
- On Mac OS: TIBCOUniversalInstaller-mac.command -silent [-V responseFile="filename"]
Note: If you copy the response file to another directory, not the temporary directory containing the installer, provide the absolute path of the response file.
