Silent installer on linux

dale conrad
over 4 years ago

We are attempting to totally automate the install for foglight agent managers. We've spoken with support and they referred us to here. The installer for linux is not truly silent or headless and requires some human intervention. We are trying to find out if we can echo commands to the installer in order to bypass a human having to actually be involved in the process, or to see if someone else has another solution that has worked for them in the past.

Thanks!

    yes you can on the binary you download from fms multiple parameters are available

    support.quest.com/.../doc874421

    from our ansible script

    shell: '{{fglam_data_dir}}/fglam.bin --silent --installdir {{fglam_install_dir}} --fms url={{fglam_fms_url1}} --fms url={{fglam_fms_url2}} --host-display-name={{fglam_name}} --no-start-on-exit --no-install-service'
