(or)

                 Normally IBM Installation Manger(IM)'s installation path is

                   C:\Program Files\IBM\Installation Manager\eclipse

                 But i want to change  this location as my requirement. i.e. I want to  change default location of  IM.

                 When we install IM in GUI, we can change default location of it. But when we install IM in silent mode, we can't change default location.

                 So, now follow my article to change this default location of IM.

               

1.IM contains some folders and some files.

2.open "install" xml file in notepad. Just add  below  line to change default location of IM.

  

             

                                 here I want to install IM in E:\usr\local\opt\was\im\im16\eclipse. So, u can change the location based on ur environment.

3.Now U can install IM on different location.

4. For better understand, just check below images.

In above images I installed IM in 'E:\usr\local\opt\was\im\im16\eclipse' location.

                In this article I would like to explain How to install WebSphere Customization Toolbox 8.5 in silent mode using response file on windows.

                I divide this article into 3 parts.

                            1) Installing installation manager (IM) silently by using the installer on windows.

                            2)Create our own response file for installing WebSphere Customization Toolbox  in silent mode using Installation Manager(IM).

                            3)Install WebSphere Customization Toolbox in silent mode using our own response file.

                    

1) Installing installation manager (IM) silently by using the installer on windows:

                      I did one article on How to install installation manager (IM) silently by using the installer on windows.

                      So, check below link to complete first part.

 http://webspherejungle.blogspot.in/2014/03/installing-installation-manager-im-v-16_23.html

                    I hope u complete first part. Now we will move to next part.

2)Create our own response file for installing WebSphere Customization Toolbox in silent mode using Installation Manager(IM):

                     Note:

                                Silent installation cannot install packages that are contained different disks.

                 ex:

                       here I use WebSphere Customization Toolbox 8.5.5.0 trail version. It comes 2 different disks like

                          was.repo.8550.wct.ilan_part1.zip

                            was.repo.8550.wct.ilan_part2.zip

                       Then we unzip these 2 zip files. It will be created 2 different folders like

                        was.repo.8550.wct.ilan_part1                                              

                        was.repo.8550.wct.ilan_part2    

                 

                     Then we merge these 2 folders into one folder. Just follow below steps to merge.

                        Just change one unique name for 2 diffrent folders. just like below name

                        was.repo.8550.wct.ilan_part (At the time changing of 2 nd folder as like first folder, . It may ask "Confirm Folder Replace". Click on "Yes" button. Now u can have only one folder in that location. Follow images carefully u will get more idea about it.)

Now just follow command to create our own response file using Installation Manager(IM) GUI mode

                   InstallationManager_installation location\eclipse>IBMIM.exe -skipInstall  "e:\temp" -record "e:\temp\myresponsefile.xml"

It will open the Installation Manager. Now follow the steps

1) Add the repository to install plugin. Follow the steps  to add repository file.

   File--------------->References------------------>Add Repository--------------->click on browse.

  select repository file from WebSphere Customization Toolbox version 8.5  trial package folder.

2)After selecting  repository file click on "Install" on the wizard of Installation Manager(IM).

3) Check the check box of WebSphere Customization Toolbox and click on "next".

4)Select the radio button to accept the license. 

5)Specify the path for  Share Resource Directory and click on "Next".

6) Specify the path for where to install Plugins and click on "Next".

 7)Leave default and Click "Next".

8)Click on "Install".

9)It doesn't take time because it doesn't install plugins binary files.

 10)Exit from Installation Manager(IM).

                   Now u check our own response file is created. 

              Now we move to next part, i.e. WebSphere Customization Toolbox installation in silent mode by using response file.

3)Install WebSphere Customization Toolbox in silent mode using our own response file:

                                Now use "imcl" command to install WebSphere Customization Toolbox in silent mode.

"imcl" command is under IM_root\eclipse\tools

  check below ex command for installing WebSphere Customization Toolbox

       

                   InstallationManager_installation location\eclipse\tools>imcl.exe -acceptLicense -input e:\temp\myresponsefile.xml  -log  e:\temp\wctsilent.xml 

                  Now WebSphere Customization Toolbox is installed in ur box. If u find any errors, check log files.
