The installer uses passwordless Secure Shell (ssh) or Remote Shell (rsh) communications among systems. The installer uses the ssh daemon or rsh daemon that comes bundled with the operating system. During an installation, you choose the communication method that you want to use. Or, you can run the installer -comsetup command to set up ssh or rsh explicitly. You then provide the installer with the superuser passwords for the systems where you plan to install. When the installation process completes, the installer asks you if you want to remove the password-less connection. If installation terminated abruptly, use the installation script's -comcleanup option to remove the ssh configuration or rsh configuration from the systems.
See Installation script options.
In most installation, configuration, upgrade (where necessary), and uninstallation scenarios, the installer can configure ssh or rsh on the target systems. In the following scenarios, you need to set up ssh or rsh manually, or use the installer -comsetup option to set up an ssh or rsh configuration from the systems.
When you perform installer sessions using a response file.
