The silent installation is useful if you want to create a response file that can be distributed and run on multiple computers to create an identical installation of the product on each computer. To perform the silent installation, you must distribute the response file and the appropriate installer file with supporting installation zip files.
- Java installer
- PROGRESS_DATADIRECT_JDBC_INSTALL.jar
- DriverModules
- PROGRESS_DATADIRECT_JDBC_database_n.n.n_INSTALL.iam.zip
- PROGRESS_DATADIRECT_JDBC_COMMON_n.n.n_INSTALL.iam.zip
- Windows installer
- PROGRESS_DATADIRECT_JDBC_INSTALL.exe
- DriverModules
- PROGRESS_DATADIRECT_JDBC_database_n.n.n_INSTALL.iam.zip
- PROGRESS_DATADIRECT_JDBC_COMMON_n.n.n_INSTALL.iam.zip
Important: If running the Java installer on Windows, you must
either select a non-system directory as the installation directory or turn off User Account
Controls.
A silent installation requires performing the following steps:
- Creating the response file. You can create this file in either of the following ways:
- Using the installer. See Creating a Response File Using the GUI Installer for instructions.
- Using a text editor. See Creating a Response File Using a Text Editor for instructions.
- Performing the silent installation. See Performing the Silent Installation for instructions.
Important: Your product license may limit the number of CPUs that can exist on the
machine on which the product is installed. This limit also is imposed on any machine on
which the silent installation is performed. If you need to upgrade your product license,
contact your Progress DataDirect sales representative.
