SF 6.0 response file issues
Hello
I wonder if I can call upon your skills again.
I'm installing SF v.6 onto a Linux Platform, and trying to script an automated install onto multiple servers, without much luck.
...
The response file is perl so you MAY be able to use perl syntax, but I have automated install using responsefiles and just used sed. Just save generated responsefile to "responsefile.template" just changing hostname to "%MYHOST%" so line in responsefile reads:
$CFG{systems}=[ qw(%MYHOST%) ];
and then run script
MYHOST=`/bin/hostname -s` sed -e s/%MYHOST%/$MYHOST/ responsefile.template > ${MYHOST}.respand then call installer with responsefile ${MYHOST}.resp.
I used this method changing a whole load of variables to configure VCS so expanded sed statement to have a lot of "-e" flags so something like:
sed -e s/%MYHOST%/$MYHOST/ -e s/%MYVAR2%/$MYVAR2/ responsefile.template > ${MYHOST}.respMike
