Installing Server Software

Server installation media supports GUI, console, and unattended (silent) installs.

• Installing in GUI Mode
  Use this option to set up your software in a graphic user interface (GUI) environment. The GUI installer is wizard-driven and supports all product editions and installation types.
• Installing from the Command Line
  Choose a command-line installation if you prefer a non-GUI interface or for developing custom installation scripts. Installing components in console mode is similar to installing in GUI mode, except that you run the installer from the command line, and enter text to select the installation options.
• Installing in Unattended (Silent) Mode
  Unattended or silent installations are typically used to update multiple systems. Except for the absence of the GUI screens, all actions of InstallAnywhere are the same, and the result of an installation in silent mode is exactly the same as one done in GUI mode with the same responses.
• Setting the Environment Variables
  Set the environment variables required to run the server. The shell scripts that set these variables also set the variables needed by Open Client.
• Install Logs
  The installer writes a general log that records all installation activity and individual logs for each installed component. If an installation problem occurs, start with the IQ_Suite.log, then refer to the component log for specific details.
