Install the IBM MQ server silently on Linux

We can carry out a non-interactive installation of the IBM MQ server. A non-interactive installation is also known as a silent, or unattended installation.

About this task

To install IBM MQ silently, accept the IBM MQ license in non-interactive mode and then follow the interactive installation procedure.

Procedure

1. Log in as root, or switch to the superuser by using the su command.
2. You must accept the terms of the license agreement before we can proceed with the installation. To do this run the mqlicense.sh script.

   The license agreement will be displayed in a language appropriate to your environment and you will be prompted to accept or decline the terms of the license.

   If possible, mqlicense.sh opens an X-window to display the license.

   If you need the license to be presented as text in the current shell, which can be read by a screen reader, type the following command, mqlicense.sh -text_only
