Installing a preconfigured controller component

You can configure the controller component by editing the trc_controller.cfg configuration file after the controller is installed. You can also apply custom configuration settings when you install the controller component.

About this task

Preconfiguring the controller is useful for unattended installations. You can set your configuration file values in the configuration file and copy the file to the computers that you want to install the controller on. Your configuration settings are installed together with the controller. The configuration values are set in the trc_controller.cfg file. You can create the file and add your custom values or you can edit a default configuration file. If you do not apply any preconfiguration, the default configuration file is installed when you install the controller component.
Preconfiguring the controller for a Windows™ operating system installation
  1. Copy the trc_controller.cfg file to the same directory as the trc_controller_setup.exe or trc_controller.msi file.
  2. Run the controller installation file.
The controller is installed with your configured settings.
Note: Preconfiguring the controller is not supported for installation on a Linux™ operating system. If necessary, you can modify and rebuild the controller .rpm file from the source .rpm file.

Example

Use the content of the default configuration file to create your custom configuration file and set your own values.
