Client installation media supports GUI, console, and unattended
installations. Stop any servers currently running in the installation directory. Mount
the drive, if necessary.
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-windowing 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 for updating 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 Environment Variables
Open a terminal and set the environment variables required to run Sybase IQ. The shell scripts that set these variables also set the variables needed by Open Client.
