express_install Command--Install Ingres Quickly
The express_install command quickly installs all Ingres packages in the default location using default configuration values.
If you set II_RESPONSE_FILE to point to a valid response file, then you can install Ingres with the configuration defined in that response file.
This command has the following format:
express_install.sh [-interactive|-express] [-acceptlicense]
[-uid uid] [-user username] [-noroot] [-usesudo]
[-respfile filename] [instance_ID] [install_dir]
[-licdir dir] [-?|-help]
-interactive
Prompts for all configuration options. (Conflicts with -express.)
Note: This option is for advanced users only.
-express
Does not prompt for configuration options. (Implies -acceptlicense; conflicts with ‑interactive.)
-acceptlicense
Accepts all license prompts.
-uid uid
Specifies the user ID (UID) to be used when creating user. The user ID must exist. (Disallowed with -noroot.)
-user username
Installs as user username instead of user ingres. The username must exist. (Disallowed with ‑noroot.)
-noroot
Installs Ingres as the current user. All installation locations must exist and be writable as current user for the installation to succeed. Instance will be owned by current user.
-usesudo
Installs Ingres using the current user and invokes sudo for root access, locally and remotely. The instance is owned as "ingres" by default. If required, the current user is used for remote connections and sudo is invoked for root access. (Not valid as root user.)
-respfile filename
Uses the settings in the response file filename during setup. A response file lets you customize the installation. (Requires -express or -acceptlicense.)
instance ID
Specifies the Ingres instance ID, which is a two-character string where the first character must be an uppercase letter and the second character must be an uppercase letter or a number from 0 to 9.
Default: II
install_dir
Specifies the full path to the location where Ingres is to be installed (II_SYSTEM).
Default: /opt/Actian/IngresII
-licdir dir
Uses dir as the location of a valid license.xml file. (Not valid with -respfile.)
Examples: express_install.sh Command
This command installs all packages in the current working directory with the default configuration:
express_install.sh
This command installs all packages with the default configuration, but with an instance ID of A1:
express_install.sh A1
