You can choose to record a separate response file any time you perform an interactive installation. All your installation choices are automatically recorded in a user-defined response file. If you do not specify a filename, the install creates the file $TEMP/install.ini.

The format and structure of any data input option is identical to that which is presented in the automatically-generated response.ini file.

Use the following syntax to initiate a response file:

proinst -r [<path>\response-file]
proinst
Initiates an OpenEdge installation.
-r path/response-file
Specifies that the installation is in record mode, and specifies the path and file name for the data input file to be created. If you do not specify a file name, the installation creates the file install.ini it in the directory represented by the $TEMP environment variable.
