The "Create a Response File" option allows you to create a response file for installing Arcserve Backup Patch Manager on your computer(s). A response file is a text file that simplifies the installation process by storing various configuration and setup parameters for the product being installed. A response file contains your inputs to the various installation options. Each answer is stored as a value for a variable identified in the response file.
To edit or change the values stored in an existing response file, you must relaunch Arcserve Backup Patch Manager setup using the Create a Response File option and select the new values to overwrite the previously created response file.
After the Arcserve Backup Patch Manager response file (setup.icf) is created, it will then be used during a silent installation. Silent installation allows for unattended installation based on the configuration values that were provided at the time that a silent installation response file was created. However, a silent installation will not prompt you for any input, but instead at run time will read the necessary information from the created response file (setup.icf). Silent installations are used when there are similar installations to be performed on more than one computer.
To launch the silent installation, you must run the following command:
>mastersetup.exe /I:"<path for the setup.icf response file>"
As part of the create a response file installation process, you will be prompted to specify the following options:
