VIOS no-prompt updateios

Hi IBM,

Would you be able to add a flag/option to the updateios command to suppress the 'Continue bos.rte.install installation [y|n]?' and other similar prompts?

    I have the same issue with the 'Continue bos.rte.install installation [y|n]?' --- we have heavily automated our PowerVM installations , but this is a HUGE roadblock when concerned about "true" automation as we are. Things like this, although little they seem, is the proverbial burr that you sit on. We really need a flag for this to be turned off. I think IBM needs to 'THINK' more like Apple here.

    Also allow flag to bypass manually entering "y" at this point:

    ******************************************************************************

    End of installp PREVIEW. No apply operation has actually occurred.

    ******************************************************************************

    Continue the installation [y|n]?

    Y
