_pppp_kkkk_gggg_aaaa_ssss_kkkk allows the administrator to store answers to an interactive
package (one with a request script). Invoking this command generates a
_r_e_s_p_o_n_s_e file that is then used as input at installation time. The use
of this _r_e_s_p_o_n_s_e file prevents any interaction from occurring during
installation since the file already contains all of the information the
package needs.
_----_dddd Runs the request script for a package on _d_e_v_i_c_e. _d_e_v_i_c_e can be
a full pathname to a directory or the identifiers for tape,
floppy disk or removable disk (for example, _////_vvvv_aaaa_rrrr_////_tttt_mmmm_pppp,
_////_dddd_eeee_vvvv_////_dddd_ssss_kkkk_////_0000_ssss_2222, and _////_dddd_eeee_vvvv_////_dddd_ssss_kkkk_////_ffff_0000_tttt). The default device is the
installation spool directory.
_----_rrrr Identifies a file or directory, which should be created to
contain the responses to interaction with the package. The
name must be a full pathname. The file, or directory of files,
can later be used as input to the _pppp_kkkk_gggg_aaaa_dddd_dddd command.
_p_k_g_i_n_s_t Specifies the package instance or list of instances for which
request scripts will be created. The token _aaaa_llll_llll may be used to
refer to all packages available on the source medium. The
format _p_k_g_i_n_s_t_...._**** can be used to indicate all instances of a
package. When using this format, enclose the command line in
single quotes to prevent the shell from interpreting the *
character.

The _----_rrrr option can be used to indicate a directory name as well as a
filename. The directory name is used to create numerous _r_e_s_p_o_n_s_e files,
each sharing the name of the package with which it should be associated.
This would be used, for example, when you will be adding multiple
interactive packages with one invocation of _pppp_kkkk_gggg_aaaa_dddd_dddd. Each package would
need a _r_e_s_p_o_n_s_e file. To create multiple response files with the same
name as the package instance, name the directory in which the files
should be created and supply multiple instance names with the _pppp_kkkk_gggg_aaaa_ssss_kkkk
command. When installing the packages, you will be able to identify this
directory to the _pppp_kkkk_gggg_aaaa_dddd_dddd command.
