Peopletools 8.54 client silent installation

Digging around the last Oracle VM appliance HCM92008 (based on Peopletools 8.54.01), I just discovered a file with a nice name.
Check at /opt/oracle/psft/pt/tools/setup/Client/Disk1/resp_file_client.txt
Does this mean we can install Peopletools client in silent mode ? Well, probably not so easily in fact. According to the documentation, it’s still not supported : “Note. Only the command line options listed in this documentation are supported for PeopleSoft installation. Note that the use of a response file for silent installation is not supported for the installer for PeopleSoft PeopleTools 8.54. For some of the installations described elsewhere in this documentation, such as PeopleSoft Pure Internet Architecture, the same options apply.”

Fair enough, looking across Internet, it seems I missed a very interesting blog entry, worth to go through :

Nice catch up !
