Symantec 5 manual Syntax in the response file, Example response file, Or, in the case of a list

Advanced VCS installation topics 165

Performing automated VCS installations

To perform automated installation

1Navigate to the folder containing the installvcs program.

# cd /mnt/cdrom/cluster_server

2Start the installation from one of the cluster systems where you have copied the response file.

# ./installvcs -responsefile /tmp/response_file

Where /tmp/response_file is the response file’s full path name.

Syntax in the response file

The syntax of the Perl statements that are included in the response file varies. It can depend on whether the variables require scalar or list values.

For example, in the case of a string value:

$CFG{Scalar_variable}="value";

or, in the case of an integer value:

$CFG{Scalar_variable}=123;

or, in the case of a list:

$CFG{List_variable}=["value", "value", "value"];

Example response file

The example response file resembles the file that installvcs creates after the example VCS installation. The file is a modified version of the response file generated on vcs_cluster2 that you can use to install VCS on vcs_cluster3. Review the variables that are required for installation.

See “Response file variable definitions” on page 166.
