- ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 1. Create Installation Response File - Main panel ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
-
- Response files are used to install products remotely (CID install) or to
- provide a customized install.
-
- This tool will help you create a response file with all the keywords necessary
- for a basic install. The complete list of keywords will be inserted in the file
- as comment lines. If you need to customize the response file further, you can
- edit the resulting file using any text editor.
-
- Following is a description of each field in the main panel:
-
- o Product
-
- This is a drop-down list with the available DB2 products for which a response
- file may be created. Select the product for which you wish to create a
- response file.
-
- o Optional Components
-
- This is a list of the optional components that you can select to have
- installed. Zero or more components may be selected. The contents of the list
- depend on the product you have selected in the Product list.
-
- o File directory
-
- This entry field allows you to select the target directory for installation
- of the product. The specified drive need not exist on this system, however,
- it must be available at install time on the target system.
-
- o Update CONFIG.SYS
-
- Place a check in this box if you would like changes applied directly to the
- CONFIG.SYS file. Uncheck the box if you would like the changes to be made to
- a backup of the CONFIG.SYS file.
-
- o Save backup if product is already installed
-
- If you have checked this box and the product being installed is already
- installed on the target system, the installed version will be backed up. This
- response file keyword is ignored if the product is not currently installed.
