For detailed information about how to install Installation Manager, see the Installation Manager documentation.

About this task

You can silently install the Integration Workbench package by using a global response file that is provided on the installation eImages in the \response_files\ directory. For a list of response files, see Table 1.

Perform the following steps:
  1. Copy the response file to a local directory.
  2. Edit the following sections:

    For more information about how to complete the section properties, see the properties description in the Integration Workbench response file
    Note: Ensure that all the passwords that you specify in the response file are encrypted as described in Encrypting user passwords for response files.
  3. Save the file with your changes.
  4. Open a command-line prompt.
  5. Go to the Installation Manager tools directory.
    The default tools directory is:
    On Windows operating systems
    C:\Program Files\IBM\Installation Manager\eclipse\tools
    On UNIX and Linux operating systems
    /opt/IBM/InstallationManager/eclipse/tools
  6. Run the following command:
    On Windows operating systems
    imcl.exe input <local_dir>\response_file.xml 
    -log <local_dir>\log_file.xml 
    -acceptLicense
    On UNIX and Linux operating systems
    ./imcl input /<local_dir>/response_file.xml 
    -log /<local_dir>/log_file.xml 
    -acceptLicense
    Where:
    • The response_file.xml is the name of the response file to be used for installation.
    • The log_file is the name of the log file that records the result of the silent installation.
