It is possible to install the MySQL Enterprise Monitor without any direct user interaction. This is done by passing the command-line option --mode unattended to the installation file.

Using this mode and other command-line parameters means the user will not be prompted for input during installation. This is especially useful when doing multiple installations of the MySQL Enterprise Monitor.

However, rather than passing numerous parameters from the command line, it is usually more convenient to save your options in a text file and invoke the installer using the optionfile option. This is a more reusable and less error-prone solution.

Before attempting an unattended installation, it is recommended that you install the MySQL Enterprise Monitor interactively at least once. Failing this, as a minimum, read the regular installation instructions since some tasks still remain after an unattended installation; you must configure the MySQL Enterprise settings, import the advisors, and start up all the services/daemons.
