silent_mode

--silent_mode={on|off}

If the parameter value is on, the silent mode is enabled. It means that the software will automatically handle situations requiring user interaction. If an operation cannot continue without user interaction, it will fail. Details of the operation, including errors, if any, can be found in the operation log.

If the value is off or if the parameter is not specified, the command allows interaction with the user. Set this value if the operation requires a user interaction, such as inserting removable media (CD or DVD).

To prohibit interaction when the software comes across a bad sector during backup, use the --ignore_bad_sectors parameter. The --silent_mode parameter does not work in this particular case.

The --silent_mode and --force_yes parameters are mutually exclusive.
