Installing InfoPrint Manager on Remote Systems

You can configure a server to support remote and unattended installations of the InfoPrint Manager software.

For the unattended installation of InfoPrint Manager using the "pull" and "push" methods, you need to edit the ipin_response file. The ipin_response file contains all of the potential input variables.

Here is an example of the ipin_response file:

///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
//
// File: ipin_response
// Project: InfoPrint Manager Installer
// Purpose: Contains all settable variables for an unattended
//          run of the InfoPrint Manager Installer.
//
///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////


// It is crucial that hostname match the current hostname setting
// if you are performing an unattended REMOTE install.
hostname=target_server

// Choose under which user InfoPrint Manager will run.
// Default is ipm1, but it can be root or other system user
// or network user.  
ipm_user=ipm1

// Create the user at install, default true.
create_user=true

// The following setting is used to determine whether you intend to
// install InfoPrint Manager using Trial or Register license type,
// where 1 indicates "Trial" and 0 indicates "Register".
trialLicense=1

// The following setting is used to determine whether you accept the license
// agreement of either Trial or Register license type and the software
// maintenance agreement. Read the license and software maintenance agreements,
// from Ricoh Company, Ltd. and other companies, carefully.
// To review the licenses in other languages, refer to the Publications CD or the
// web page available at
// https://help.ricohsoftware.com/swinfocenter/ricoh-software-licenses/swlicenses
.ditamap/$/license_infoprintmanager .
// The value of 1 indicates "Accept" and 0 indicates "Decline". Declining the
// license and software maintenance agreements will cause the product not to 
// install.
acceptLicense=0
// The following setting is used only when a Register license type is selected 
// and it is used to determine the location of the license file used for 
// registration of the InfoPrint Manager product. Make sure your license file is 
// available on the specified location during the installation process.
licenseKey=/tmp/license.key

// The following variables define the InfoPrint Manager components or features
// you want to install. 1 indicates "yes" and 0 indicates "no".
wantServer=1
wantSAP=0
wantJPSF=0
wantPullPrint=0
wantAFP2PDF=0

// Pull Print settings
// The following parameters define the host and the port of the InfoPrint Manager
// command processor server (and its backup) that the Pull Print Feature is using
// to communicate with the InfoPrint Manager servers.
// Example: PRIMARY_HOST_PORT=localhost:6874
PRIMARY_HOST_PORT=
PRIMARY_BACKUP_HOST_PORT=

// If you are running a reinstall or a migration from a previous
// release of InfoPrint Manager, you will probably want to retain
// your previously defined configuration objects. To do this,
// set wantKeepObjects to 1. If you want to have a new minimal
// configuration, set to 0.
wantKeepObjects=1

// Set PrimaryServer to 1 if this is on the primary server otherwise
// set PrimaryServer to 0 and SecondaryServer to 1.
PrimaryServer=1
SecondaryServer=0

// If installing InfoPrint Manager on
// a secondary server, you must specify the IP address (or resolvable
// host name) of the primary system in the primSrvrAddr variable.
primSrvrAddr=dotted_decimal_address

// Set the language, by default is en_US
iprLocale=en_US
// iprLocale=fr_FR
// iprLocale=es_ES
// iprLocale=de_DE
// iprLocale=it_IT
// iprLocale=Ja_JP
