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

   Platform	Command
   Server components
   Linux	sh ./linux_bao_server_installer_7_7_00_00.sh -i silent -DOPTIONS_FILE="fullPathToOptionsFile/optionsFile"
   Solaris	sh ./solaris_bao_server_installer_7_7_00_00.sh -i silent -DOPTIONS_FILE="fullPathToOptionsFile/optionsFile"
   Windows	pathToInstaller\windows_bao_server_installer_7_7_00_00.cmd -i silent -DOPTIONS_FILE="fullPathToOptionsFile\optionsFile"
   BMC Atrium Orchestrator Development Studio
   Windows	pathToInstaller\windows_bao_devstudio_installer_7_7_00_00.cmd -i silent -DOPTIONS_FILE="fullPathToOptionsFile\optionsFile"
   Content
   Linux	sh ./linux_bao_content_installer_20_12_04_00.sh -i silent -DOPTIONS_FILE="fullPathToOptionsFile/optionsFile"
   Solaris	sh ./solaris_bao_content_installer_20_12_04_00.sh -i silent -DOPTIONS_FILE="fullPathToOptionsFile/optionsFile"
   Windows	pathToInstaller\windows_bao_content_installer_20_12_04_00.exe -i silent -DOPTIONS_FILE="fullPathToOptionsFile\optionsFile"

   The installer executes without prompts.

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

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