Executing a silent upgrade


To launch the silent upgrade, you use the same command for all platform components. The options file controls what component is upgraded or installed, and its properties.

You execute silent upgrades from the command line and you are not prompted for input. On Red Hat Linux or Oracle Solaris operating systems, you can output debug logging to the console window by exporting LAX_DEBUG=true.

Before you begin

You must have an options file that specifies the components to upgrade and where to upgrade them.

To execute a silent upgrade

  1. Navigate to the directory that contains the silent installation program.
  2. From the command line, execute one of the following commands to start the silent installation program.
    When you specify the options file name, specify the full path to the options file-not a path that is relative to the installation program.

    Command

    Server components

     

    Linux

    sh ./setup.bin
    -i silent -DOPTIONS_FILE="fullPathToOptionsFile/optionsFile"

    Solaris

    sh ./setup.bin -i silent
    -DOPTIONS_FILE="fullPathToOptionsFile/optionsFile"

    Windows

    pathToInstaller\setup.exe -i silent
    -DOPTIONS_FILE="fullPathToOptionsFile\optionsFile"

    BMC Atrium Orchestrator Development Studio

     

    Windows

    pathToInstaller\windows_bao_devstudio_installer_7_6_03_00.exe -i silent -DOPTIONS_FILE="fullPathToOptionsFile\optionsFile"

     

    Type the command carefully. If you type the command incorrectly, you might invoke an installation mode that is unsupported.

  3. As necessary for your environment, execute the silent installation on other computers until you have upgraded or installed all of the platform components.

The installer executes without prompts.

When you finish executing the silent installation to upgrade the Access Manager or CDP, clear your browser's cache before you begin using the upgraded components.
