<h1 class="topictitle1">Create response files for iSeries Access for Windows installations</h1>
<div><div class="section"> <p>A response file records the selections made in response to the
prompts in the installation process. During a silent installation, the setup
program will use the response file to get the information necessary to complete
the installation.</p>
<p>To create a response file, follow these steps:</p>
</div>
<ol><li class="stepexpand"><span>At the command line in the iSeries™ Access for Windows<sup>®</sup> installation
image directory on a PC, type: </span> <pre>setup -r -f1d:\dir\file.iss </pre>
to
run an installation, and record the responses. <ul><li class="liexpand"> <p><samp class="codeph"><var class="varname">-f1</var></samp> is an optional parameter used
to indicate an alternate response file name. If you do not use this parameter,
then setup.iss records all of the installation choices. Setup.iss resides
in the Windows directory, for example, C:\Windows or C:\Winnt
depending on your operating system.</p>
</li>
<li class="liexpand"><samp class="codeph"><var class="varname">d:\dir\</var></samp> is the drive and directory
where you want to create the response file. If you use the <samp class="codeph"><em>-f1</em></samp> parameter,
then you must specify the drive and directory along with the response file
name that you want to create.</li>
<li class="liexpand"><samp class="codeph"><var class="varname">file.iss</var></samp> is the name of the response
file that you want to create. The file extension must always be iss.</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li class="stepexpand"><span>Complete the setup program, providing the responses you want to
use during the silent installations.</span></li>
</ol>
<div class="section"> <p>After the installation is complete, the iss file that is created
will look somewhat like this:</p>
