Automating the completion of the Contact Information page in Symantec Installation Manager

Complete the following steps to create a config.xml file that contains the contact information and to populate the Contact Information page with this data when Symantec Installation Manager runs:

  1. Use the following XML to create a config.xml file that contains your data:
    <?xml version="1.0"?>
    <simConfig xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">
           <downloadConfig>
                  <tradeComplianceConfig>
                        <!--The personal information required for trade compliance (required for tradeComplianceConfig)-->
                           <personalInformation>
                               <organization>company Name</organization>
                               <firstName>first name</firstName>
                               <lastName>last name</lastName>
                               <email>email address</email>
                               <address1>company address</address1>
                               <address2 />
                               <country>country</country>
                               <city>city</city>
                               <stateProvince>state or province</stateProvince>
                               <zipCode>zip code</zipCode>
                               <phone>phone number</phone>
                           </personalInformation>
                  </tradeComplianceConfig>
           </downloadConfig>
    </simConfig>
  2. Copy the config.xml file to each Notification Server.
  3. Launch Symantec Installation Manager with the following command line:

SymantecInstallationManager.exe /configfile <filepath> where <filepath> is the path to the config.xml file that you created.

When Symantec Installation Manager runs, it automatically populates the Contact Information page with the data you entered in the config.xml file.
