Installing the DMC - CLI (Silent) demo mode

The Deployment Monitoring Console (DMC) can be installed or updated from the command line interface using a silent install. In a silent install, install parameters are defined in a varfile that is passed in as an argument to the DMC installer.

Uses

Users typically use this method when they want to automate installation of updates to the application, especially when their automation infrastructure does not allow for interaction with the install/update process.
