Install Data Flow Probe
1. (Linux only) Download HPUCMDB_DataFlowProbe_10.32_xxx.bin, then run the following
command:
chmod a+x HPUCMDB_DataFlowProbe_10.32.xxx.bin
2. Prepare the response file:
To produce the response file, execute the installer with the -r command line switch:
<Probe installer file name> -r <Directory for response file>
Note: Instead of the directory name, you can also specify the complete file name for the
response file, for example, C:\temp\ResponseFileForProbe.txt:
On Windows: HPUCMDB_DataFlowProbe_10.32.xxx.exe –r C:\temp\ResponseFileForProbe.txt
On Linux: ./HPUCMDB_DataFlowProbe_10.32.xxx.bin –r /tmp/ResponseFileForProbe.txt
Once executed, follow the user interface installation wizard to complete the installation, and the
response file ResponseFileForProbe.txt will be stored in the directory specified in the -r switch.
Note:
o The response file contains a number of NAME=VALUE pairs, one on each line of the file.
The lines containing comments start with the # character. You can edit the content of the
file to provide an alternative configuration that needs to be used for the unattended
installation. For example, you can customize the target installation directory as well as
other settings.
o The file needs to be in the following character encoding:
indows: UTF-8 without BOM (Byte Order Mark) or UTF-16 little endian
Linux: UTF-8 without BOM
(Linux only) If you have no GUI access, you can find a test machine with GUI access and
produce the response file, then copy the generated response file to the Linux machine
where you want to execute silent installation of Data Flow Probe.
3. Execute the silent installation
<Probe installer file name> -i silent –f <Response File path and name>
For example, on Windows: HPUCMDB_DataFlowProbe_10.32.xxx.exe –i silent –f C:\temp\ResponseFileForProbe.txt
On Linux: ./HPUCMDB_DataFlowProbe_10.32.xxx.bin –i silent –f /tmp/ResponseFileForProbe.txt
4. Start the Data Flow Probe
