Installing in Silent Mode

Installing in Silent Mode

To install the Dynamic Data Masking Server and Management Console without user interaction, install in silent mode.
  1. Log in to the machine with a user account that has administrator privileges.
  2. Navigate to the directory where you downloaded the Dynamic Data Masking installation file.
  3. Locate the SilentInput.properties file.
  4. Create a backup copy of the SilentInput.properties file.
  5. Use a text editor to open the SilentInput.properties file and modify the values of the installation parameters.
    The following table describes the Dynamic Data Masking installation parameters that you can modify:
    Property Name
    Description
    USER_INSTALL_DIR
    Absolute path for the directory in which to install Dynamic Data Masking. If the folder contains a current installation, Dynamic Data Masking will upgrade.
    Use the default path format. Use two backslashes (\\) before folder names for installation on Windows. Use a slash (/) for installation on Linux and UNIX.
    PA_LICENSE_FILE
    Absolute path to a valid license file.
    Use the default path format. Use two backslashes (\\) before folder names for installation on Windows. Use a slash (/) for installation on Linux and UNIX.
    PA_SERVER_NAME
    Dynamic Data Masking Server name. Modify PA_SERVER_NAME to install a Dynamic Data Masking Server with a different name.
    PA_PORT_NUMBER
    Dynamic Data Masking port. Modify PA_PORT_NUMBER to install a Dynamic Data Masking Server that uses a different port. The number of the port must be valid and not locked.
  6. Save the SilentInput.properties file in the same directory as the silent install script file.
  7. Begin the installation on Linux, UNIX, or Windows. Use a shell command line to navigate to the installation directory and run the following commands:
    • On Linux or UNIX, run the following command:
      silentinstall <administrator password>
    • On Windows, run the following command
      SilentInstall.bat <administrator password>
    The administrator password is the Dynamic Data Masking administrator password. If you do not provide a password, Dynamic Data Masking uses the default password, admin. If you use the default password, you can change the password after you install.
  8. You can view the
    DDM_Install.log
    file to get more information about the installation and to view configuration properties for the installed components. If the installation ends with a warning, check the
    DDM_Install.log
    file for details. The log file may be in the installation directory, on the desktop on Windows, or in the /home/user directory on Linux and UNIX.
