Manage installations with Installation Manager
In wizard mode, you run Installation Manager from a graphical user interface.
Use silent installations to perform software deployments to multiple systems, or to an enterprise. Silent installations are defined by a response file and launched from the command line or a batch file.
Use console mode when you do not have a graphics display device available or when you want to run the Installation Manager without the graphical user interface. Installation Manager supports installing in an ASCII text-based mode referred to as console mode. Console mode is interactive text-based user interface to Installation Manager. For example, use console mode for server-side deployments when no graphical user interface is present, or for running the installation from a remote host.
Use command line (imcl) mode when you cannot use the Installation Manager user interface or a response file for silent installation, You can use imcl commands with either the installed version of Installation Manager or the installer.
