Installing with a response file

You can install Replication Server using a response file in combination with a console or silent installation. You must first create the response file.

To create a response file, do one of the following at the command line:

Enter the following command, where REP.response is name you choose for the response file.
- HP Itanium, HP-UX and Solaris:
```
./setup -options-template REP.response
```
- HP Tru64, IBM AIX, and SGI:
```
./setup -options-template REP.response -is:javahome JVM
```
- Mac: In a terminal window, enter:
```
java -Djava.awt.headless=true -cp /Volumes/"RS126 MAC"/suite.jar \
    run -options-template REP.response
```
InstallShield creates an options template called REP.response. Edit the template with the values you want to use during installation.
Enter the following command at the command line, where REP.response is a name you choose for the response file:
- HP Itanium, HP-UX and Solaris:
```
./setup -options-record REP.response
```
- HP Tru64, IBM AIX, and SGI:
```
./setup -options-record REP.response -is:javahome JVM
```
- Mac: In a terminal window, enter:
```
java -Djava.awt.headless=true -cp /Volumes/"RS126 MAC"/suite.jar \
    run -options-record REP.response
```
InstallShield runs the installation in GUI mode and captures all user choices to a file called REP.response. You can also specify the -console option to get the same results.

You can use REP.response for future installations of Replication Server, either as is or edited for the new installation.

Editing the response file

Specify the installation location, where path is the full path and filename:
```
-P installLocation=path
```
Do not use special characters for the path name, such as blanks or periods.
Specify the setup type, where installation_type specifies the type of installation (full, typical, or custom):
```
-W setupTypes.selectedSetupTypeId=installation_type
```
If you specify either the Full or Typical installation, you do not need to uncomment the individual features. InstallShield has predefined which features are installed with either the full or typical installation.

If you choose the Custom installation, you must uncomment the desired features and set their values to “true.”
Not on HP Tru64 UNIX, Mac OS X, or SGI – The last line in the response file allows you to specify if you want to start a sample Replication Server. You must uncomment this line and specify either “yes” or “no” (case sensitive; use all lower case):
```
-W ConfigureReplicationServer.Yes-or-No="no"
```
