During an deployment of IBM Security Key Lifecycle Manager (SKLM), I'm going through a manual silent installation of the stack, which includes: -


  • IBM Installation Manager 1.8.5
  • IBM DB2 11.1
  • IBM Java 8
  • IBM WebSphere Application Server 9.0.0.5
  • IBM SKLM 3.0.0.2
Specifically, this is what I have to install: -


C:\temp\disk1\im\tools\imcl.exe -version

Installation Manager (install kit)
Version: 1.8.5
Internal Version: 1.8.5000.20160506_1125
Architecture: 64-bit

No installed Installation Manager was detected.



C:\\temp\disk1\im\tools\imcl.exe listAvailablePackages -repositories
c:\temp\disk1\diskTag.inf,c:\temp\sklmFP\sklm\repository.config

com.ibm.sklm30.win_3.0.0.2
com.ibm.java.jdk.v8_8.0.5000.20170906_1611
com.ibm.sklm30.db2.win.ofng_11.1.2.2

Having populated the response file: -

\temp\disk1\SKLM_Silent_Win_Resp.xml

I started the installation: -

C:\temp\disk1\im\tools\imcl.exe -input \temp\disk1\SKLM_Silent_Win_R
esp.xml -acceptLicense

which fairly quickly failed with: -

ERROR: The following errors were generated while installing.
  ERROR: CTGKM9063E The Application Server Administrator Password field is empty

It took me a while to work out what was going wrong - eventually I read this: -

...
  • To add the encrypted passwords to the relevant elements of the response file, use the IBM Installation Manager utility to create encrypted passwords.
    For information about how to encrypt the password, see Encrypted password for response file elements.
  • ...


    and then this: -


    which led me to encode ( encrypt !! ) the password: -

    C:\temp\disk1\im\tools\imcl.exe encryptString Qp455w0rd!

    9AvB2f9EhO8MtRhZbk/dXQ==

    and updated the response file accordingly: -

    ...
    ...

    Once I did this, I was able to move forward with the installation .......
