Reusing a Core Definition File (CDF)

You can specify a CDF to use during the installation by invoking the installer using the
-c <cdf_filename> argument. The installer reads the contents of CDF and uses the parameter values stored in that file as the defaults. Use the latest CDF as determined by the time stamp. The CDF is saved as described in How and when CDFs are saved. For example:

/var/opt/opsware/install_opsware/cdf/cdf_<timestamp>.xml
