DB2 graphic  QMF Version 8

Installing on clients

Once the installation files have been customized, you are ready to install on each client machine. To do so, simply run the setup.exe program in the installation folder on the file server. This will create shortcuts to run the programs installed on the file server.

System components installed on the client machine

Although the bulk of the QMF for Windows files are installed only on the file server, the installation wizard may install a set of system components on each client machine. These are standard Microsoft components that typically are already installed on an up-to-date machine. If the components are already installed, and are up-to-date, they are not installed again.

Unattended installation

You can make the installation process on the client machines unattended, meaning that it requires no input from a user during the installation. To perform an unattended installation, customize the setup.ini file in the installation folder, setting both AutoInstall and AutoExit in the [Options] section to 1. Note that when you set AutoInstall to 1, you must also set InstallPath and ProgramGroup.
