Installing NetVault in unattended mode

The unattended mode is supported on all operating systems. When performing unattended installations, you can specify the installation options at the command line or in an option file.

An option file is a text file that provides answers to the questions that would be asked during the installation process. Each answer is stored as a value for a variable identified in the option file. You can save the option file in any directory and assign it any valid filename.

The installer uses the default values for options that are omitted (except for the password for PostgreSQL Database Superuser, which does not have a default value).

You can specify the following parameters at the command line or in the option file.

On Linux and UNIX: ./<Name of the installation file> --help

On Windows: <Name of the installation file> --help

--unattendedmodeui <interaction level>

Specifies the interaction level for the unattended installation.

The allowed values are:

none: This is the default mode for unattended installations. In this mode, the installer does not display any prompts or progress information.

minimalWithDialogs: In this mode, the installer displays some prompts, and it provides the progress information through pop-up windows.
