Installing on Linux in Silent Mode

To silently install Apache Kafka on Linux platforms, follow this procedure.

Procedure

  1. Download the installation package. 
    TIB_msg-akd-core_2.7.x_linux_x86_64.zip
  2. Cd to the download directory or move the file to a preferred extraction location. Extract the Apache Kafka archive files. 
    unzip TIB_msg-akd_2.7.x_linux_x86_64.zip
    This command creates a directory, TIB_msg-akd_2.7.x, and places installation RPM, DEB, and tar archives in that directory.
  3. Change directory to the installation directory. 
    cd TIB_msg-akd_2.7.x
  4. Install using one of these commands, depending on the Linux platform variant.
