Before you can run the the ITSM Integration patch in silent mode, you must create an  options.txt  file to identify the options that you want the installer to include in the installation.   An example DWP-ini-template.txt file contains all of the options you can place in the Options.txt file.  Use either of the following methods to create the options.txt file:

-J BMC_AR_SERVER_NAME=
-J BMC_AR_PORT=
-J REMOVE_LEADING_ZEROES=
#Leave the following parameters as is

To run the installer in silent mode 

1. Edit the options.txt file to include the appropriate options.

   As you edit the options.txt file, apply the following guidelines:

   • Add the comment (#) markers to ignore the parameter.
   • In UNIX environments, ensure that no Ctrl+M characters appear in the options.txt file.
2. Run the installer with the -i silent option:
   • (Windows)  setup.exe -i silent -DOPTIONS_FILE=c:\path\to\options.txt
   • (UNIX)  ./setup.bin -i silent -DOPTIONS_FILE=/path/to/options.txt
