When you need to automate or repeat installations, you can set the installer to perform a non-interactive installation, based on an answer file, which the installer can create automatically from the answers you specify during an interactive installation.
Use -r, -a, and -d switches
The install script has the following options:
$ ./rhino-install.sh -h Usage: ./rhino-install.sh [options] Command line options: -h, --help - Print this usage message. -a - Perform an automated install. This will perform a non-interactive install using the installation defaults. -r <file> - Reads in the properties from <file> before starting the install. This will set the installation defaults to the values contained in the properties file. -d <file> - Outputs a properties file containing the selections made during install (suitable for use with -r).
You’ll use:
-
-dto create the answer file -
-rto read the answer file -
-ato install in non-interactive mode.
For example, to create the answer file:
$ ./rhino-install.sh -d answer.config
And then to install, unattended, based on that answer file:
$ ./rhino-install.sh -r answer.config -a

After installing multiple nodes for a cluster unattended, you must manually copy the keystores between them, so the clients can connect. |
