Installing Novell iManager 1.5 remotely

Novell iManager 1.5

Novell eDirectory 8.7

fix

There may be certain circumstances where you will want to install iManager 1.5 remotely.  The current iManager 1.5 installation requires user intervention all throughout the GUI installation.  If you do want to install iManager silently enabling you to install from a remote location, the following needs to be performed.

From the command line, just add "-i silent" (without the quotes) to the installation command line.  If you want to use a properties file, create a file called installer.properties or iManagerInstall.properties and place it in the same directory as the iManagerInstall.jar file.  Set the INSTALLER_UI=silent property in the property file.  See the examples below on how to use both methods.

Command line:
JAVA -CP path :iManagerInstall.jar install -i silent

Properties file:
JAVA -CP path :iManagerInstall.jar install -f installer.properties (or iManagerInstall.properties)
