Install script will not correctly pass userid for VCA install

[dsshon]

I am trying to install PSP 7.80 on Redhat ES4 with an answer file. It's basically ./install780.sh -f -s -inputfile unattend.dat, where I am trying to pass the userid e.g. HPVCAVCRMLOGINID="domain\CIMXEP01" that is specified within the answer file (unattend.dat).
What ends up being passed is domainCIMXEP01. The "\" is omitted. I have tried "\\" and '\' to no avail. Has anyone come across this before?

did you try adding '/\'?

Getting closer...Looks like if I try that e.g. 'domain/\CIMXEP01' it passes 'domain\CIMXEP01' which is not accepted because it passes the single tick. If I try to pass "domain\/CIMXEP01" it passes domain/CIMXEP01"

[Sharath K S]

did you try the same for ticks too /"?

[dsshon]

Yes, it passes domain/username

Hi,
I'm not sure whether your problem solved or you are still facing the problem?

sorry, it does not work because it passes domain/CIMXEP01.

[Sharath K S]

looking from your previous replies it looks like you are trying "domain\/CIMXEP01" correct?
Try this /"domain/\CIMXEP01/" this could solve your problem..

It looks like that will pass "/domain/CIMXEP01/" which will not work.
