Run the configuration wizard silently

To run the wizard silently...

1. Generate a customization data file using one of the following options...

   • Generate the customization data file in the configuration wizard without running the tasks.

   • Modify the sample customization data file to match your deployment..
     PORTAL_HOME/installer/samples/configwizard

     The sample scenarios do not cover all deployment options. If the samples do not match the deployment scenario, generate the customization data file.

2. For each deployment cycle, create a silent installation from the set of customization data...

     cd WP_PROFILE/ConfigEngine.
   ./ConfigEngine.sh customize-workflow \
       -DwfId=workflow-identifier \
       -DwfData=customization-data-file \
       -DwfOutput=/path/to/output/dir \
       -DWasPassword=foo 

   Where...

   workflow-identifier	Name in the repository.
   customization-data-file	Name of the customization data file.
   /path/to/output/dir	Directory where files are written. Includes... workflow-identifier.wfi Install tasks and data. workflow-identifier Directory where scripts are created.

3. Start the silent installation:
   ./ConfigEngine.sh execute-workflow -DwfInstance=workflow-instance -DWasPassword=foo

   This task runs until:

   • A step in the silent installation fails. We must correct the error and then run the resume-workflow task.

   • A step is reached that requires manual action. Finish the requested action and then run the resume-workflow task.

4. To resume the silent installation, run the resume-workflow task:
   ./ConfigEngine.sh resume-workflow -DWasPassword=foo

   This task works in the following way:

   • If we resume the silent installation after an error, the task runs the failed step.
   • If we resume after completing a manual step, the task runs the next step in the sequence.
