2.8. Automated Installation Approaches

Procedure 2.12. 

1. Enter key values in variable file

   JBoss EAP 6 installer creates an automatic installation script and an automatic installation variable file. The automatic installation variable file contains a list of keys and password parameters needed for automatic installation. To enter key values open the automatic installation variable file. Fill in a valid key/password value against each key parameter. For example:

   adminPassword = password#2
   vault.keystorepwd = vaultkeystorepw
   ssl.password = user12345

2. Run the installer with the variablefile filename argument to begin automated installation

   You can begin a fully automated JBoss EAP installation by running the installer with the variablefile argument. This argument supplies the variable file key/password values (step 1) to the installer.To begin a fully automated installation, open a terminal and enter the following command, replacing auto.xml and auto.xml.variables with the names of your files:

   java -jar jboss-eap-6.x.x-installer.jar auto.xml -variablefile auto.xml.variables

Procedure 2.13. 

• Run the Installer with the Variables Argument

  Start the automated installation by running the installer with the variables argument and then specifying a variable list. The variables specifies the variables and their key or password values during installation. To initiate the installation process open a terminal and enter the following command, replacing the filename auto.xml and the variables' values with your own:

  java -jar jboss-eap-6.x.x-installer.jar auto.xml -variables adminPassword=password#2,vault.keystorepwd=vaultkeystorepw,ssl.password=user12345

  Note

  It is important to specify the variable names (adminPassword, keystorepwd and ssl.password) without any empty space for successful installation.
