Preparations for Installing HDLM by Performing an Unattended
Installation
An unattended installation allows a user to install HDLM without having to
enter information into dialog boxes or specify HDLM functions. Instead, the
user defines the required information for the dialog boxes in an installation-
information settings file prior to running the installation. The procedure for an
unattended installation is as follows:
1
.
Specify the required information for the installation in the installation-
information settings file.
2
.
Execute the installhdlm utility.
3
.
Information will be automatically entered into the dialog boxes or HDLM
functions, as defined in the installation-information settings file.
4
.
The installation will finish and log data will be output, showing the status
and result of the installation.
This section describes the following aspects of an unattended installation:
• How to create an installation-information settings file
• Notes on installation
