The IBM Integration Bus is installed via the Installation Manager. If you are unable to use the graphical user interface, you can use the console and/or the web mode available in the Installation Manager to install the latest IIB Toolkit fixpack.
Here is an example on how to install a fixpack using the console mode. In this example we are upgrading IIB Toolkit from 9.0.0.9 to 9.0.0.10:

If you have any issues while using the Installation Manager in console mode, do the following:
- Edit the imcl.ini file located in eclipse\tools directory,
- Add the following parameter to the ini file: -Dcic.supports.console.mode=true
- Save the file and then start the Installation Manager in console mode
If you want to upgrade the IIB Toolkit using the web mode, do the following:
- Navigate to the Installation Manager directory and move into the eclipse/web directory.
- Edit the ibmim-web.ini file and add the following parameter to the file: -Dcic.suppress.web.ui.checks=true
- Save the file.
C:\IBM\Installation Manager\eclipse\web>ibmim-web.exe
You can also use the console mode to record a response file to later update the IIB Toolkit silently. To record a response file, you need to start the console mode using the – record parameter:
imcl.exe -c -record
At this point we are still using the repository.config from the previous example: C:\9.0.0-IIT-WINIA32-FP0010\IIT9000_90010\repository.config
C:\IBM\Installation Manager\eclipse\tools>imcl.exe -c -record c:\response.xml

Once the installation is completed successfully, a response.xml file will be created with the options selected during the installation. The response will look something like this:
Now you can launch the Installation Manager with the -silent and -input parameters using the response file created
before:
C:\IBM\Installation Manager\eclipse\tools>imcl.exe -silent -input c:\response.xml -log c:\installation_log.txt -acceptLicense
You can launch Installation Manager in console mode again to validate that the upgrade was indeed successful.
C:\IBM\Installation Manager\eclipse\tools>imcl.exe -c
