This example will silently install the IIP created in "IIP Example 1: Creating and installing an IIP containing the application server and a feature pack".
As of Version 6.1.0.13 you must keep the version levels of the application server and any installed feature packs synchronized to the same maintenance level. If you have any feature packs installed, then it is recommended that you use the Update Installer to synchronize your environment before installing any additional Installation Factory packages. In fact, you will either be blocked from installing or prompted to upgrade during the installation of a feature pack CIP if your versions are not the same. If you are prompted and do not provide the proper maintenance packages you will be blocked from installing the CIP.
You can slip install, or update, an existing application server that contains one or more feature packs with an IIP as long as all packages in the IIP are at the same maintenance level. You can alsoscratch install an IIP containing the application server and one or more feature packs onto a machine with no existing application server as long as all included packages are at the same maintenance level. Read the Working with feature packs topic for more information. You must use Installation Factory version 6.1.0.17 or later if you want to use an IIP to update a feature pack environment.
If you are installing the Feature Pack for Web Services for the first time, then it is recommended that you create a CIP containing the feature pack and the most recent fix pack. Otherwise if you have already installed the Feature Pack for Web Services with the regular installer, you need to include a mandatory interim fix before installing a CIP containing any feature pack fix packs. See Installing and configuring multiple feature packs for additional information regarding feature pack installation and other considerations.gotchaThere are two ways to silently install an IIP: run the IIP installer wizard but install the contributions silently, or run the IIP installer without the wizard and install contributions silently. This example will step through the silent installation of the IIP created in the previous example. The first approach is to install the contributions in silent mode. You need to modify the response files for both invocations. You can either create a brand new response file for each invocation, or modify the existing samples response file. In this example, you will modify existing sample response file. See Installing an IIP silently for more detailed information on how to modify a response file.
