In order to run a silent installation of the Identity Manager components, you must create a properties file with the parameters necessary to complete the installation. There is a sample file included on the Identity Manager media:
Linux: ./install/propfiles/install.properties
Solaris: ./install/propfiles/install.properties
Windows: \install\propfiles\install.properties
Start the silent installation by using the correct program for your platform:
Linux: ./install.bin -i silent -f <filename>.properties
Solaris: ./install.bin -i silent -f <filename>.properties
To execute the binary file, enter ./install.bin -i silent -f <filename>.properties.
Windows: \install.exe -i silent -f <filename>.properties
The silent installation supports the following password variables as environmental variables. If the password variables are not passed through the environment, you must add them to the silent properties file.
Metadirectory Server: IA_IDVAULT_ADMIN_PASSWORD.
Roles Based Provisioning Module: IA_RBPM_POSTGRESQL_DB_PASSWORD and IA_RBPM_USERAPPADMIN_PASSWORD.
Identity Reporting Module: IA_REPORTING_NOVL_DB_USER_PASSWORD, IA_REPORTING_IDM_USER_PASSWORD, and IA_REPORTING_IDM_SERVER_PASSWORD.
Event Auditing Service: IA_EAS_ADMIN_PWD and IA_EAS_DBA_PWD.
You can also run a silent configuration of the Identity Manager components by creating a properties file with the parameters necessary to complete the configuration for each platform. There are two sample files included on the Identity Manager media. One is used for creating a new tree, and the other is used for adding the server to an existing tree.
Linux/Solaris: See the following locations:
./install/propfiles/configure_new_tree.properties
./install/propfiles/configure_existing_tree.properties
Windows: See the following locations:
\install\propfiles\configure_new_tree.properties
IDM4.0.1_Win:\install\propfiles\configure_existing_tree.properties
Start the silent configuration by using the correct program for your platform:
Linux: ./configure.bin -i silent -f <filename>.properties
Solaris: ./configure.bin -i silent -f <filename>.properties
To execute the binary file, enter ./configure.bin -i silent -f <filename>.properties.
Windows: \configure.exe -i silent -f <filename>.properties
The sample properties files available in the install\propfiles location can be used only when all the components are configured in one run.
To see the mandatory parameters, run the following command:
./install/bin -i silent -DSELECTED_PRODUCTS=<components to be configured>
The description of the IDs for the Identity Manager components is available in the properties file.
Create a properties file with the output of the above command, add SELECTED_PRODUCTS with the components to be configured, then rerun the silent install command to do a silent configuration of the selected components.
