Installing in silent mode

A silent mode installation, sometimes referred to as an unattended installation, allows you to install the product with all responses being taken from the response file that you have set up. There is no user interaction. This is useful when you want multiple identical installations or you want to automate the installation process.

At the command line, enter the following command:

./setup -is:javaconsole -silent -options responseFileName -W SybaseLicense.agreeToLicense=true

where responseFileName is the absolute path of the file name containing the installation options you chose. The -W option specifies that you agree with the Sybase License Agreement text.

Except for the absence of the GUI screens, all actions of InstallShield 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.
