          must precede the catalog file name.

          If the catalog file is located on a diskette, LAN, or AS/400 Shared
          folder, a drive and directory must precede the catalog file name.

          The following are examples of the /C parameter for each source:

   Drive
        /C=Z:\EPFICAT.CAT

   MVS
        /C=B:EPF.V1R1M0.SEPFBENU(EPFICAT)

   VM
        /C="B:EPFICAT ENUEPF11 *"

   VSE
        /C=B:LIB.SIBLIB.MEMBERNAME.MEMBERTYPE

          If this parameter is present, the specified catalog file is
          automatically opened.

/G:include path
          Specifies the drive and path of the general response files that are
          included by the specific response file.

          The installation and maintenance utility sets the EPFIGENRESPDIR
          installation variable to the include path.

          Example:

                       /G:L:\XYZ

/L=xpos,ypos
          Specifies the initial x and y coordinates of the Installation and
          Maintenance window on the desktop relative to the lower-left corner
          of the screen.

          If this parameter is specified, all previously saved default
          positions are overridden.

/L1:error log
          Specifies the drive, path, and file name of the destination of the
          error log file.

          The installation and maintenance utility sets the EPFIERRORLOG
          installation variable to the error log.

          If drive and path are not specified, the drive and path where
          EPFINSTS.EXE is running is used. If file name is not specified,
          errors are logged to EPFINSTS.OUT.

          Example:

                       /L1:C:\ABC\ERROR.LOG

/L2:history log
          Specifies the drive, path, and file name of the destination of the
          history log file.

          The installation and maintenance utility sets the EPFIHISTORYLOG
          installation variable to the history log.

          If drive and path are not specified, the drive and path where
          EPFINSTS.EXE is running is used.

          If this parameter is not specified, no history log is maintained.

          Example:

                       /L2:C:\ABC\HISTORY.LOG

/L3:  /L4:  /L5:log files
          Each of these parameters can contain a drive, path, and file name of
          a log file. They are preserved in installation variables EPFIL3LOG,
          EPFIL4LOG, and EPFIL5LOG for your use.

/P=prodname
          Specifies the name of the product on which the action is performed.

          If the product name contains spaces, it must be enclosed in double
          quotes (").

          Sample valid product name specifications:

   /P="Product name with spaces"
   /P=productname

/R:response file
          Specifies the drive, path, and file name of the specific response
          file.

          The installation and maintenance utility sets the EPFIRESPFILE
          installation variable to the response file.

          Example:

                       /R:L:\XYZ\RESPONSE.DAT

/O=source environment
          Specifies the source environment (origin) of the installation or
          update. Valid values for this parameter are:

   o DRIVE
   o MVS
   o VM
   o VSE

          This parameter is ignored for a delete or restore action.

/S:source location
          Specifies the drive and path that contain the source files to be
          installed.

          The installation and maintenance utility sets the EPFISOURCEDIR
          installation variable to the source location.

          Specifying this parameter sets the /S parameter to DRIVE and
          overrides the value of the HOSTLOC keyword in the product's catalog
          file.

          If this parameter is not specified the value of the HOSTLOC keyword
          is not overridden.

          Example:

                       /S:L:\XYZ

/T:install target directory
          Specifies the drive and path of that the product files are installed
          into.

          This parameter only affects the value of the FILE directory
          (directory corresponding to the FILELABEL keyword).

          The installation and maintenance utility sets the EPFITARGETDIR
          installation variable to the install target directory.

          Example:

                       /T:C:\IBB

/ TU:update target CONFIG.SYS directory
          Specifies the drive and path of the target CONFIG.SYS to be updated.

          The installation and maintenance utility sets the EPFITARGETCNF
          installation variable to the update CONFIG.SYS target directory.

          If this parameter is not specified the CONFIG.SYS files are updated
          as specified in the product's package file.

          Example:

                       /TU:C:\

/X
          Specifies that the action is unattended.

          When you specify this parameter no progress indication is shown.

          If information needed for the action to complete is not specified, an
          error occurs. If you specify /L1:, all error messages are logged to
          the error log file specified.  If /L1: is not specified, error
          messages are logged to the EPFINSTS.OUT file.

          If this parameter is not specified, the user will be prompted for any
          information that is needed for the action to complete. In this
          attended mode of operation, progress indication is shown, and error
          messages are displayed to the user in message boxes.


ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 19.78. Response file parameters ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ

In general, the format for parameters within a response file is parameter =
value.

Only one parameter can be specified per line and parameters can occur in any
order.

The following parameters are valid in an installation response file.

Parameter  Description

auxn
           Specifies the new default path for the auxiliary directory where n
           is any number between 1 and 18. (Thus there are 18 possible
           auxiliary directories: AUX1, AUX2,...AUX18.) Use this parameter only
           for an install action.

comp
           Specifies a component within the product for which the operation is
           to be performed.  Use multiple comp parameters to specify more than
           one component.  Invalid components are ignored.

cfgupdate
           Specifies whether the CONFIG.SYS file is automatically updated.
           Valid values for this parameter are AUTO (automatically update
           CONFIG.SYS) or MANUAL (do not update CONFIG.SYS). This parameter is
           used only for install or update actions and is ignored if any other
           action is specified.

copy
           Specifies the source and target files for a copy process. The format
           of this parameter is:

                        COPY = from_filespec to_filespec

           Where from_filespec is the source file and to_filespec is the target
           file.  If the to_filespec already exists, it is overwritten.  If
           either file specification is not valid, the copy is not performed.

deletebackup
           Specifies whether to delete only the backup versions of the product
           or to delete the entire product. Valid values for this parameter are
           YES or NO.  This parameter is used only for a delete action and is
           ignored if any other action is specified.

file
           Specifies the FILE directory that the product is to be installed
           into.  This parameter is used only for an install action and is
           ignored if any other action is specified.

include
           Specifies the which general response files to include with a
           specific response file. The format of this parameter is:

                        INCLUDE = filespec

           Where filespec is the general response file to be included.  If the
           file specification contains any global characters (* or ?), the
           first file found which matches the specification is included.  If
           the specification is not valid, no general response file is
           included.

           The following search order is used to find the general response
           files specified.

    1. The fully qualified file specification, if specified with filespec
    2. The current directory
    3. The file name together with the /G: invocation parameter
    4. Each directory in the PATH environment variable
    5. Each directory in the DPATH environment variable

overwrite
           Specifies whether to automatically overwrite files during
           installation.  Valid values for this parameter are YES or NO. This
           parameter is used only for an install action and is ignored if any
           other action is specified.

savebackup
           Specifies whether to save a backup version of the product when it is
           updated. Valid values for this parameter are YES or NO.  This
           parameter is used only for an update action and is ignored if any
           other action is specified.

userexit
           Specifies the name of a user exit that you want started. The format
           of this parameter is:

                        USEREXIT = filespec

           Where filespec is the name of a user exit. If the file specification
           contains any global characters (* or ?), the first executable found
           which matches the specification is started.  If the specification is
           not valid, no user exit is started.

           The following search order is used to find the specified user exit.

    1. The fully qualified file specification, if specified with filespec
    2. The current directory
    3. Each directory in the PATH environment variable
    4. Each directory in the DPATH environment variable

work
           Specifies the WORK directory that will be used during product
           installation.  This parameter is used only for an install action and
           is ignored if any other action is specified.
