Issue/Introduction

We would like to do a Silent install of  Visual Services Catalog and Enterprise Dashboard. But,  we are not able connect to external SQL server/ database during installation.


here is the sample for vscatalog response.varfile 

# install4j response file for Virtual Service Catalog 1.0.0 (build 1.0.0.1) 
caAgreementChoice=2 
createDesktopLinkAction$Boolean=true 
dbHost= 
dbName= 
dbPort$Long= 
dbType$Integer=2 
dbUsername= 
driverPath= 
sys.adminRights$Boolean=true 
sys.component.179$Boolean=true 
sys.component.57$Boolean=true 
sys.installationDir=C\:\\DEVTEST10.3\\vscatalog 
sys.languageId=en 
sys.programGroupAllUsers$Boolean=true 
sys.programGroupDisabled$Boolean=false 
sys.programGroupName=Virtual Service 

We installed the components and all the services started fine. 

Environment

All supported DevTest releases.

Cause

N/A

Resolution

This feature request is not currently supported by the VS Catalog.

The Enterprise Dashboard does not have it's own installer, it is part of the server install, so refer to section "Installing DevTest Solutions with a Silent Install" in the documentation of the DevTest release you are running.
