Performing a silent Veritas Access installation

A silent installation and configuration is based on a response file that you prepare so that the Veritas Access software can be installed without prompts. This feature is useful if you want to install the Veritas Access software on a large number of nodes.

Before performing a silent Veritas Access installation and configuration, you have to manually configure a secure shell (ssh) communication between the nodes.

See Manually configuring passwordless secure shell (ssh).

You can get the Veritas Access example response file from the root directory of the ISO image.
