Installing the server in a Linux environment (unattended installation)
You can perform unattended server installations on Linux.
To perform an unattended installation of the server in a Linux environment:
1. Log on to the Linux operating system as the root user.
2. Open a shell window and navigate to DVD-ROM-mount-directory/HCS/platform-name
These characters can be specified in the mount path of a DVD-ROM: A to Z, a to z, 0 to 9,
underscores (_), forward slashes (/).
NOTE:
This is the directory that holds the installer program (install.sh).
3. Enter the following command:
#./install.sh -s property-name=value
To specify multiple properties, use a space to separate each property-name=value entry.
To specify a value that contains a space, add a backslash and quotation mark (\") before and
after the value.
When the installation completes, the result is written in the HInstReport.txt file in the /tmp
directory. If you see SUCCESS in the summary section of the file, the installation was successful.

Performing a Device Manager agent unattended installation
You can automate agent installation by creating and executing a script file. Unattended installation
can be used when installing on multiple hosts with the same conditions. By creating a settings file
(HDVMAgent.conf), you can also perform basic setup functions during the unattended installation.
When setting up an unattended installation, note the following:
• In Windows, manually add a firewall exception after completing the installation.
• LocalSystem is set for the agent service account.
Prerequisites for Device Manager agent unattended installations
Before performing an unattended installation of the Device Manager agent, verify the host requirements
and system prerequisites and set up the installation machine.
