Silent Installation
The Silent Installation feature of the Netscape Server Products Setup program
allows you to use a file to predefine all the answers that you would normally
supply interactively during installation. This is useful when you want to install a
large number of Netscape server instances using identical installation options.
Performing a Silent Installation
In order to perform a silent installation, you must create a set of installation
answers and then run the Netscape Server Products Setup program in silent mode.
The easiest way to create a set of installation answers is to perform an installation
and save your installation cache to a file. Once you've done this, you can modify
the cache file and then use it when performing additional installations.
You can use Silent Installation to upgrade multiple instances of Administration
Server. Rather than manually entering the same set of answers for each server, you
can save your installation answers while upgrading one instance of Administration
Server, and then upgrade the remaining instances using the same answers.
