IBM Master Data Management v12 and Feature Packs — Silent installation
MDM Silent Installation is time saving. In this article, let us delve into MDM installation techniques, silent installation invocation, silent installation inputs and the advantages of silent installation. We will also have a complete sample response that aids usage of silent installation.
IBM MDM installation
MDM can be installed using IBM Installation Manager in one of the below modes
- Using IBMIM User Interface: This approach is user-friendly as it takes in lesser input from end user, performs validations and test connections. It does also obtain inputs on whether the configuration (deployment) can be performed.
- Using IBMIM in console mode: Some customers who are not able to make use of User Interface do make use of IBMIM in console mode. The advantages here are fairly similar, albeit the difference in the way inputs have to be provided and performing steps such as Test Connection.
- Using IBMIM in silent mode: Silent installation is time saving. It can take in certain additional inputs for installation. As it is possible to configure MDM during installation, silent install is a good choice for automation / quicker configuration at developer’s host machine. Once we understand the input parameters and the invocation technique, we can easily make use of this technique.
In this article we will focus on how we can install MDM in silent mode.
Generating response file through IBMIM UI — timesaver approach
It is possible to generate a response file based on inputs that you provide in the IBMIM User Interface. IBM Installation Manager executable is present at <INSTALLATION_MANAGER>/eclipse folder. It can be invoked with the below parameters to perform the installation and record the inputs:
IBMIM -record <FILE_NAME>
The <FILE_NAME> can include path in it.
IBM Installation Manager can be invoked with the below parameters to only record the inputs
IBMIM -record <FILE_NAME> -skipInstall <LOGS_DIRECTORY>
The <FILE_NAME> can include path in it. It can be used to install MDM using IBMIM in silent mode. The logs generated during this process will be stored in the <LOGS_DIRECTORY>.
Invoking Silent Installation
IBM Installation Manager can be invoked in silent mode, by passing an input response file:
IBMIM -silent -input <FILE_NAME> -acceptLicense -noSplash
The <FILE_NAME> can include path in it. The parameter -noSplash ensures that the splash screen is not displayed.
Please invoke the executable as ./IBMIM in all operating systems other than Windows
To install MDM, please use IBMIM v9.2.x from MDM v11.6.0.12 onwards
MDM v12.0.0.1 Silent Installation Input File — Install
There are a number of inputs to be passed in to configure MDM. So, let us split the input file into specific parts and have an overview.
The base file
<?xml version=’1.0' encoding=’UTF-8'?>
<agent-input>
<variables>
<variable name=’sharedLocation’ value=’<INSTALLATION_MANAGER_SHARED_FOLDER>’/>
</variables>
<server>
<repository location= '<MDM_INSTALLABLE_FOLDER>’/>
</server>
<profile id='InfoSphere MDM Standard Edition or Advanced Edition0.1' installLocation=’<MDM_FOLDER>’>
<!-- <INSTALLATION INPUTS> -->
</profile>
<install>
<!--InfoSphere MDM Standard Edition or Advanced Edition 12.0.0.1 -->
<offering profile=’InfoSphere MDM Standard Edition or Advanced Edition0.1' id='com.ibm.mdm.advanced.0.1' version='12.0.0.FP01IF000_20220627–1458' features='com.ibm.mdm.install.feature’/>
</install><preference name=’com.ibm.cic.common.core.preferences.preserveDownloadedArtifacts’ value=’false’/>
<preference name=’com.ibm.cic.common.core.preferences.keepFetchedFiles’ value=’false’/>
<preference name=’com.ibm.cic.common.core.preferences.eclipseCache’ value=’${sharedLocation}’/>
</agent-input>
The shared resources directory is the directory where resources can be shared by different packages and is managed by the Installation Manager.
The repository location points to the repository.config file in MDM installable or to the directory that has the MDM installable.
The content in profile plays a key role during installation. Here, we provide all the inputs to deploy MDM. We need to pass in the MDM installation directory as the value for installLocation parameter in profile.
The operation to be performed — install / uninstall is mentioned below. The id that we provide in profile is mapped to profile in the offering.
In the directory where you have expanded the MDM installable, you will be able to notice a repository.xml file. Please open this file. The below line will be seen.
<offering id='com.ibm.mdm.advanced.0.1' version='12.0.0.FP01IF000_20220627–1458'>
The id and version noticed in offering the repository.xml have to be provided as input in offering in our input response file
<offering profile='InfoSphere MDM Standard Edition or Advanced Edition0.1' id='com.ibm.mdm.advanced.0.1' version='12.0.0.FP01IF000_20220627–1458' features='com.ibm.mdm.install.feature'/>
The id and version in offering must match the values provided in the repository.xml in MDM Installable.
While the preference com.ibm.cic.common.core.preferences.eclipseCache is used provide the value for sharedLocation, it is good to include preferences com.ibm.cic.common.core.preferences.keepFetchedFiles and com.ibm.cic.common.core.preferences.eclipseCache to save disk space. Please obtain details on these preferences from IBM Installation Manager
Note: In case you are installing other version of MDM (11.6.0.x or 12.0.0.x), please replace the profile, id and version with the appropriate value and proceed with silent installation.

Let us take up these details section-wise. For ease of use the header of each section is commented. You can copy this section and replace <!-- <INSTALLATION INPUTS> -->

Nitty Gritties
MDM installation on Cluster
When MDM is installed on a WebSphere Application Server Cluster, we need to provide values for deployment manager and cluster name. Values for node and server must be set to None.
Below is a sample of values set for MDM application. Note that similar updates need to performed to the User Interface inputs.
Note: When MDM is installed on WAS Cluster, please go to WebSphere Variables and manually set the value for driver path corresponding to the database used (DB2_JDBC_DRIVER_PATH or ORACLE_JDBC_DRIVER_PATH or MSSQLU_JDBC_DRIVER_PATH) at the Node level
#WAS Cell Name — mandatory input
<data key=’user.was.cell,com.ibm.mdm.advanced.0.1' value=’localhostCell01'/>#WAS Node — None when installed on Cluster
<data key=’user.was.node,com.ibm.mdm.advanced.0.1' value=’None'/>#WAS Server — None when installed on Cluster
<data key=’user.was.server,com.ibm.mdm.advanced.0.1' value=’None’/>#Server Name — None when installed on Cluster
<data key=’user.was.server.new,com.ibm.mdm.advanced.0.1' value=’None’/>#Enable this check box to create a new server
<data key=’user.new.server.checkbox,com.ibm.mdm.advanced.0.1' value=’false’/>#Is installation on WAS Cluster?
<data key=’user.was.cluster.flag,com.ibm.mdm.advanced.0.1' value=’true’/>#Cluster Name, set the WAS Cluster name
<data key=’user.was.cluster,com.ibm.mdm.advanced.0.1' value=’MDMCluster’/>
MDM installation on Oracle
When Oracle Service Name or Oracle RAC is used, the value of user.oracle.rac has to be set to true
#Is Oracle RAC or Service Name being used
<data key=’user.oracle.rac,com.ibm.mdm.advanced.0.1' value=’true’/>
MDM v12.0.0.1 Silent Installation Input File — UnInstall
When you install MDM and manually invoke madconfig target Configure_MasterDataManagement, ie., use the below,
<data key=’user.launch.config.from.silent.install.flag,com.ibm.mdm.advanced.0.1' value=’false’/>
Before invoking the uninstall using IBMIM, please invoke the madconfig target Uninstall_MDM for <MDM_INSTALL_DIR>/mds/scripts. Once the target completes execution, invoke MDM uninstall using IBMIM.
When the target Configure_MasterDataManagement is launched by IM, ie,
<data key=’user.launch.config.from.silent.install.flag,com.ibm.mdm.advanced.0.1' value=’true’/>
Do not manually invoke target Uninstall_MDM.
In both cases, please update the silent input response file, set <install> and </install> to <uninstall> and </uninstall> respectively, and invoke the below command:
IBMIM -silent -input <FILE_NAME> -acceptLicense -noSplash
Note that the above command is the same as one used for installation.
