Take the following steps for silent installation:
Edit an installation parameter file.
Run a silent installation.
For the upgrade installation, refer to the ETERNUS SF Migration Guide of this version.
When using default install, it is not necessary to edit an installation parameter file.
An installation parameter file is a file in which to specify installation parameters such as installation destination directory or port number. This file is stored on DVD-ROM and default values are set for respective installation parameters. For details on the installation parameter file, refer to "D.13 Installation Parameter File (for AdvancedCopy Manager's Agent for Solaris/Linux)".
The installation parameter file is stored on the DVD-ROM "ETERNUS SF SC/ACM/Express Mediapack (Agent Program and Manual)" of this version.

When changing installation parameters, copy the installation parameter file on the DVD-ROM to an optional location and edit the copied file. For description of each installation parameter, refer to "D.14 Installation Parameters (for AdvancedCopy Manager's Agent for Solaris/Linux)".
The silent installation procedure of AdvancedCopy Manager's agent (for Linux) is as follows:
Login to the server on which to perform the tasks. Perform operations after logging in with root (superuser).
Install the DVD-ROM "ETERNUS SF SC/ACM/Express Mediapack (Agent Program and Manual)" of this version in the DVD-ROM drive to mount the DVD-ROM media.
In the following example of command execution, the device name of the DVD-ROM drive is mounted as /dev/dsk/c0t4d0s0. The device name of a DVD-RO drive varies with the device.
# mount -t iso9660 -r /dev/cdrom dvdromMountPointExecute the following silent installation command.
For default install
For installLogFile, specify the file in which to output installation log with an absolute path. It is optional to specify for installLogFile.
# eachEnvironmentDir/acmagtsilentinstall.sh [-l installLogFile]
For custom install
Specify for installParameterFile with an absolute path. It is mandatory to specify for installParameterFile.
For installLogFile, specify the file in which to output installation log with an absolute path. It is optional to specify for installLogFile.
# eachEnvironmentDir/acmagtsilentinstall.sh -s installParameterFile [-l installLogFile]
Refer to the following table in regard to eachEnvironmentDir above.

Point
If nothing is specified for installLogFile, an install log file named "acmagtsilentinstall.log" is created in /var/tmp directory.
If there is any file of the same name as the specified install log file exists, it is overwritten.
It is required to specify an existing directory with write permission for the directory in which to store the install log file. If it has no write permission, no error message is output in the command prompt or screen and the process terminates with error.
Note
If an invalid option is specified, its corresponding error message is output in the install log file and the process exits. No error message is output in the command prompt or screen.
Do not execute multiple silent install commands at the same time. If a silent install starts while a silent install is executing, the silent install terminates abnormally without creating an install log file.
On completion of installation, a command prompt is displayed.
After running the following command, remove the DVD-ROM media used for installation, out of the device.
# umount dvdromMountPointCheck the return value from the silent installation command. If necessary, check the install log file. However, if the return value from the silent installation command is 3 or 9, no install log file is created. For details, refer to "E.3 Return Values for Silent Installation (for AdvancedCopy Manager's Agent)".
The installation result can be viewed in the install log file, too.
Open the install log file to see "ResultCode" in the ResponseResult section. In "ResultCode" is written the return value from the silent installation command.Refer to "6.2 Setup of AdvancedCopy Manager's Agent" to set up AdvancedCopy Manager's agent.
