What are the steps for silent installation of apigee-edge-4.15 by silent_config?

[#1]

apigee-install.sh is user interactive installer which needs many inputs at various level, But we require an approach of silent installation by silent_config.

Any supporting doc available to assist.

Hello Pankaj,

Silent installation template file "silent_config_example" ships with Edge Private Cloud. The file is located in the root directory after you unzip the apigee-gateway.-4.14.xx.yy.zip file.

You need to provide the details accordingly and follow the doc mention in Appendix A:Silent Installation.

You can fill the silent file & reuse the file as installer will takes care as per the flags (option -p) (eg:ds,ms etc) you provide during the command.

We filled in the details in silent file & renamed it as per the component installation eg:silent_ds,silent_ms etc.

Eg:

5 Host Cluster Installation:

===================================================

Install and Configure Datastore Cluster Node: Machine 1, 2 and 3 Step 1: cd /opt/installers/apigee-edge-4.15.04.00 ./apigee-install.sh -r /opt -d /opt -j /usr/java/default -j option is for jdk location -r & -d point to base path of apigee (eg: /opt)

Step 2: cd /opt/apigee/apigee4/share/installer ./apigee-setup.sh -p ds -f silent_ds

ds is for data store. =====================================================

Install Apigee Management Server: Machine 1 Step 1: cd /opt/installers/apigee-edge-4.15.04.00 ./apigee-install.sh -r /opt -d /opt -j /usr/java/default -j option is for jdk location -r & -d point to base path of apigee (eg: /opt) Step 2: cd /opt/apigee/apigee4/share/installer ./apigee-setup.sh -p ms -f silent_ms ms is for management server ======================================================

Install Apigee Router and Message Processor: Machine 2 and 3 Step 1: cd /opt/installers/apigee-edge-4.15.04.00 ./apigee-install.sh -r /opt -d /opt -j /usr/java/default -j option is for jdk location -r & -d point to base path of apigee (eg: /opt) Step 2: cd /opt/apigee/apigee4/share/installer ./apigee-setup.sh -p rmp -f silent_rmp rmp is for router & message processor ======================================================

Install Apigee Analytics: Machine 4 and 5

Step 1: cd /opt/installers/apigee-edge-4.15.04.00 ./apigee-install.sh -r /opt -d /opt -j /usr/java/default -j option is for jdk location -r & -d point to base path of apigee (eg: /opt) Step 2: cd /opt/apigee/apigee4/share/installer ./apigee-setup.sh -p sax -f silent_analytics sax is for Analytics Standalone (Qpid and Postgres)

=====================================================

Hope this helps.

There is a typo in the document as the commands are given in one line.

eg:

Install and Configure Standalone Gateway: Machine 1

./apigee-install.sh -j /usr/java/default -r /opt -d /opt /opt/apigee4/share/installer/apigee-setup.sh -p sa -f config-2h

it should have been as below (missing dot in the second line)

./apigee-install.sh -j /usr/java/default -r /opt -d /opt ./opt/apigee4/share/installer/apigee-setup.sh -p sa -f config-2h

Thanks mschreuder, I got the doc and did accordingly but

/<inst-root>/apigee4/share/installer/apigee-setup.sh -p aio -f config-2h was unable to execute as config-2h was no where.

How we get and configure this file?

@pankaj singh patel as Mark mentioned above, you can download the docs from the ftp site, but you need a password. It is the same password as you used to download the Edge zip file.

In the silent install command you mentioned above:

/<inst-root>/apigee4/share/installer/apigee-setup.sh -p aio -f config-2h

You need to create the silent config file, config-2h, and then specify the path to that file using the '-f' option. As you wrote the command, the apigee-setup.sh script looks for config-2h in the current dir.

The install doc has many examples of silent config files, and many examples of running them.
