Installation Modes
Three installation modes are available: GUI, console, and silent.
GUI Mode
In the GUI mode, the installer presents screens that allow you to make choices about product selection, product location, and so on.
Console Mode
You can use the console mode 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 or custom settings that are saved in a response file. Silent mode installs the product without prompting you for information.
