Installing in Silent Mode
When installing in silent mode, the installer does not prompt you for any input during the installation. As a root or non-root user, you can choose either to provide input in the silent.cfg
file or on the command line for the silent installation. The silent.cfg
file is included in the Platform Server distribution .tar
file. This file allows you to define or configure all the parameters required for an installation.
- Procedure
- On the command line, navigate to the temporary directory where the installation package is located.
- Use the
tar command to extract the installation files.
tar -xvf mftps_tar_file_name
For example,
tar -xvf "TIB_mftps-unix&zlinux_v.v.v_linux.tar"
-
For the silent installation, you can proceed in either one of the following ways:
- If you want to use the
silent.cfg
file option for the silent installation, then enter the parameters in the file.For information on supported parameters, see Installation Parameters; or, for an example, see Example - silent.cfg File.
Run the install script if you are a root user or the install.noroot script if you are non-root user by using either one of the following commands.
- If you want to use the command-line option for the silent installation, type the parameters that are required for a silent installation, that is, -q and -accepteula.
For information on supported parameters, see Installation Parameters; or, for examples, see Examples - Command-Line Installation.
Run the install script if you are a root user or the install.noroot script if you are non-root user by using the following command.
./install -q -accepteula ./install.noroot -q -accepteula
- Review the following information in the final installation message:
- Location of the configuration file (by default $CFROOT/config/config.txt): you can use it to configure the default settings.
- Path information: you can use it to configure the required environment variables. At the end of installation, you are promoted to update the PATH as export
PATH=$PATH:$CFROOT/bin
