You can install a product package silently by using either
Installation Manager in silent installation mode or by using IBM® Installation
Manager installer. When you run Installation Manager in silent mode,
the user interface is not available; instead, a response file inputs
the commands that are required to install the product package.
About this task
There are two ways to install packages silently:
- Use Installation Manager installer to install the Installation
Manager silently, and to install packages.
- Install the Installation Manager, then use it in silent mode to
install packages.
There are two main tasks required for any silent installation:
- Create the response file. See Creating a response file with
Installation Manager for details.
- Run either installation tool in silent installation mode.
