Creating a response file
1. Create a response file for Navisphere CLI by issuing the
command below. The response file will store the setup
configuration so that you can install the CLI on all attached
Windows servers using one command. Since this command
requires no input, this is referred to as a silent installation.
The command will launch an InstallShield Wizard. Pathname or
filenames containing spaces must be in double quotation marks, for
example, "C:\my dir\my file.cfg".
Setup.exe -r -f1fullpath\responsefilename
where
-r
Indicates that a response file will be created.
-f1fullpath\responsefilename
Specifies the full pathname and filename of the target
response file.
2. If the response file is not already in a shared directory, move it to
a shared directory so that all attached Windows servers can
access the files.
