You can create a new response file, or edit one from a previous server installation.
NOTE: You should take care when using a response file from a previous installation because it can contain advanced configuration options you don't want for your current installation.
Open an ASCII editor such as EDIT.
Input parameters as described in Syntax .
You can generate a response file from a server installation or upgrade, and then use it as input for additional server installations or upgrades. Using the response file from another server installation works best when both servers have the same hardware configurations.
Perform the first server installation, and then reboot the server by clicking Yes on the closing screen of the installation.
Log in to the new server after it has been rebooted.
Copy RESPONSE.NI from the SYS:NI\DATA directory to either a diskette or to the new server.
Modify the file by adjusting the parameters and removing unwanted sections.
See Syntax for a description of the parameters
In NetWare 6, a custom response file needs to contain only the entries that vary from those found in the response.txt file on the NetWare 6 installation CD. The response file parser will merge these two files. Duplicate entries in the custom response file will replace those found in the default file.
