Creating a Response File

MicroStrategy recommends that you create a response file through the GUI mode of the Configuration Wizard. You step through the Configuration Wizard and make your selections. Then, at the end of the Configuration Wizard, do not click Finish. Instead, click Save. You are prompted to save your selections in a response file.

You can also create or modify a response file with a text editor. If you do not have access to the GUI mode of the Configuration Wizard, this is the only way to create a response file. MicroStrategy supplies a blank response file template, Response.ini, that you can copy and modify to create your response file. This file is in the Common Files folder of your MicroStrategy installation. By default, this folder is C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\MicroStrategy.

For information on all the parameters in the response file, see Response Configuration Parameters and Options.
