To minimize the user interaction, you can use secure token mechanism to authenticate the users.
  1. Get an authentication token (from a text file).
  2. The web installer uses this token to authenticate the user.
  3. This happens before downloading/installing the tool.

This authentication token needs to be acquired (generated) at least one time and expires after 7 days. You must generate/acquire a new token after it expires.

  • Use following command to generate authentication token:
    OtherDirectory]$ ls bin data lib tps xsetup
    rdevl101 OtherDirectory]$ ./xsetup -b AuthTokenGen
  • The web installer asks for an AMD Account user ID and password before generating the authentication token.
    ./OtherDirectory/xsetup -b AuthTokenGen
    This is a fresh install.
