Using the Unattended Install

As a system administrator, you can install PMF without having to step through the Setup program. Below are two example configuration files that show the unattended install commands for both a Windows and UNIX system.

Example: Installation Configuration file for Windows

The following configuration file shows the unattended install commands for a Windows system.

Note: This configuration file uses sample machine names. You must use parameters that are specific to your environment.
