Description
-d flag, increasing the number
of d's increases the debug
level.
This saves the temporary
installation file (.inf) that is
created when the register script
is run. This file can then be
reused for a silent setup. This
file is always generated, but
is usually deleted once the
install is complete. The file is
created as a log file named /
tmp/setuprandom.inf, like /
tmp/setuplGCZ8H.inf.
WARNING
The cache
file contains
the cleartext
passwords
supplied during
setup. Use
appropriate caution
and protection with
this file.
This parameter specifies a
log file to which to write the
output. If this is not set, then
the setup information is written
to a temporary file. To not use
a log file, set the file name to /
dev/null.
This parameter updates
existing Directory Server
instances. If an installation
is broken in some way, this
option can be used to update
or replace missing packages
and then re-register all of
the local instances with the
Configuration Directory.
