Creating a Response File

Record installation responses into a response file, which is a text file that you can edit to change any responses before using it in subsequent installations.

To create a response file when installing in GUI or console mode, specify the -r command line argument. The -r argument records your responses to the installation wizard’s prompts and creates a response file when the installation wizard exits.

  1. To generate a response file during installation, enter:
    ./setup.bin -r responseFileName
    where responseFileName is the file name you choose for the response file. When specifying the response file name, include its full path. For example:
    /home/sybase/REP/ResponseFile.txt
    Note: You must provide the full path name for the response file you create.
