Planning a Silent Installation or Upgrade

Review the content of the default SilentInstall_Win.txt file and determine what changes you must make for the type of SAP Mobile Platform server installation or upgrade you want to automate.

  1. Locate the SilentInstall_Win.bat script and SilentInstall_Win.txt file in the root directory of the SAP Mobile Platform Runtime installation media.
  2. If you cannot modify those files on the installation media, create a copy of the installer image in a location from which you can run the installer.
  3. Use a text editor to open the SilentInstall_Win.txt file, and review the current settings.
    Comments preceding each group of settings describe the valid options, and any special requirements for the entry.
  4. Determine what changes you want to make in the installation settings.

    For example, you may want to match non-default port number assignments used in an existing installation.
