Products

• CA Privileged Access Manager (PAM)

Issue/Introduction

Is it possible to install the PAM A2A client on Windows through the command line?

Environment

Privileged Access Manager, all versions

Resolution

First, generate the response file for future installations.

To do this, open the command line and run the command `setup_windows64_java.exe -r C:\Users\username\Desktop`.

The interactive installer will be launched, go through the installation steps and after it completes, a response file called installer.properties will be in the directory that was specified.

The response file can now be used on future installations on other servers by running the command `setup_windows64_java.exe -i silent -f installer.properties`.

The installer will now run in the background and use the file to configure the installation.
