Creating the Properties File

Informatica provides two versions of the properties file. Use either file to specify options for your installation.

Silent input upgrade new config properties file: Use the silent input upgrade new configuration properties file to upgrade Informatica domain services with changes to the node configuration and without user interaction.; The silent input upgrade new configuration properties file contains the configuration properties required to upgrade the Informatica domain services in silent mode. Use the file if you want to consider the appropriate value to set for each property in the file.
Default silent input upgrade properties file: Use the silent input upgrade properties file to upgrade Informatica domain services without user interaction.; The default silent input properties file contains default values for many configuration properties. Use the file if you plan to upgrade the Informatica domain services using the default property values.

Informatica provides a sample properties file that includes the upgrade parameters that are required by the installer. You can customize the sample properties file to specify the options for your upgrade.

The sample upgrade properties file is named SilentInput_upgrade.properties and is located in the installer download location. After you customize the file, save it with the file name SilentInput.properties.

Go to the root of the directory that contains the installation files.

Find the file named SilentInput_upgrade.properties.

Back up the file before you modify it.

Use a text editor to open the file and modify the values of the upgrade parameters.

The following table describes the upgrade parameters that you can modify:

USER_INSTALL_DIR	Directory in which to install the new version of Informatica services. The directory cannot be the same as the directory that contains the previous version of Informatica services.
UPG_BACKUP_DIR	Directory that contains the previous version of Informatica services that you want to upgrade.
INSTALL_HADOOP_LIBRARIES	Determines whether to install distribution packages through the installer. Set the value to true if you want to install distribution packages through the installer. Set the value to false if you don't need distribution packages or if you want to install them later.
