Running a batch installation

The syntax for running the OpenEdge Management installation utility in batch mode follows:

<OpenEdgeManagement-mount-point>/proinst -b pathname/filename.ini
-l pathname/filename.log 

In the syntax above, OpenEdgeManagement-mount-point refers to the directory where the OpenEdge Management installation utility, the installation support files, and the archive files can be found. For example, a typical batch installation command might be:

proinst -b /test/install.ini -l /log/test.log 

If no installation.ini file is specified as the argument to the -b option, the OpenEdge Management installation utility searches the current directory for the default file, install.ini. If no install.ini file is found, the batch installation fails.

All error messages are redirected to a log file. You can specify a log filename as an argument to the -l option. If no filename is specified for the log file, errors are redirected to the default log filename install.log. If no directory is specified for the log file, the installation utility checks the TMP, TEMP, and TMPDIR environment variables. The installation utility writes the log file to the first valid directory that it finds defined in those variables.
