Create an Image
To create an installation image, specify the -writeImage parameter on the command. For example:
java -jar SoftwareAGInstaller201510.{jar|zip}
-writeImage full_path_to_new_image_file -console
You can specify any file name for the image that is permitted by your operating system. Do not specify an extension; the installer will automatically add .zip. The directory to which you save the file must already exist.
By default, the installer creates the image for the operating system on which you are running the installer. If you want to create the image for another operating system, specify the -imagePlatform parameter on the command. For example:
java -jar SoftwareAGInstaller201510.{jar|zip}
-writeImage full_path_to_new_image_file -imagePlatform operating_system -console
On operating_system , identify the operating system for which to create the image. Valid values for operating_system are listed below.
Operating System | Value for operating_system |
Apple Mac OS X | OSX |
HP HP-UX Intel Itanium 2 | HP11IT |
HP HP-UX PA-RISC | HP11 |
Linux RHEL and SLES IBM System z | LNXS390X |
Linux RHEL and SLES x86 | LNX |
Linux RHEL and SLES x86-64 (EM64T, AMD64) | LNXAMD64 |
Microsoft Windows x86 | WNT |
Microsoft Windows x86-64 (EM64T, AMD64) | W64 |
Oracle Solaris SPARC | SOL |
Oracle Solaris x86-64 (EM64T, AMD Opteron) | SOLAMD64 |
Go to
Use a Proxy Server to Install. You will see all prompts described in that section and the following sections except the installation directory panel and the product configuration panels; you will see those panels when you install from the image.
Important: | When you select products to download into an image, the installer lists additional products that are required by the selected products. If these required products do not already exist in the target installation directories, you must include them in the image. If you do not, you will not be able to install the selected products, and in some cases installation will fail. This includes the Java package; if the Java package does not exist in the target installation directories, you must include it in the image. The installer includes the license agreement in every image. |
