A silent mode installation, sometimes referred to as an unattended installation, allows you to install the product using a response file to set default values, without any interaction required on your part. Installing in silent mode is useful when you want multiple identical installations or when you want to automate the installation process.
Follow the same steps as you would for a console installation, but at the command line, enter:
setup.exe -silent -options REP.response -W SybaseLicense.agreeToLicense=true
Or:
setupConsole.exe -silent -options REP.response -W SybaseLicense.agreeToLicense=true
Where:
REP.response – is the name of the file containing the installation options you chose.
-W SybaseLicense.agreeToLicense=true – specifies that you agree with the Sybase License Agreement text.
When running in silent installation mode, Sybase recommends
that you use setupConsole.exe. setup.exe runs
in the background, and gives the impression that the installation
has terminated immediately. This results in additional installation
attempts. Multiple installations at the same time can corrupt the
Windows Registry and lead to an operating system restart failure.
