Installation in the unattended mode

To install a component in the unattended mode (without asking for confirmations), run the component’s installation file with the -a command-line parameter. You may need to use other parameters to specify how to perform the installation.

The following are two examples of unattended installation. These examples assume that you are using a 32-bit installation file (.i686). The same parameters work with a 64-bit installation file (.x86_64).

Example 1: Unattended installation with a license key.

The following command installs Acronis Backup in the unattended mode and uses the license key 12345-67890-ABCDE:

./AcronisBackupL.i686 -a -l 12345-67890-ABCDE

You can use the same parameters to install Agent for Linux from the corresponding Acronis Backup Advanced installation file.

Example 2: Unattended installation with a license server.

This example applies only to Acronis Backup Advanced.

The following command:

• Installs Agent for Linux in the unattended mode.
• Uses an Acronis Backup Advanced for Linux Server license; the license key is stored on the Acronis License Server that is located on the machine licensesrv.
• Once the installation is complete, registers the machine on the management server located on the machine managementsrv.

./AcronisBackupAdvancedAgentL.i686 -a -L licensesrv -P ABR11.5_ASL -C managementsrv -g srvadmin -w PassWd123
