During a oracle database install using response file, we might see this error “[WARNING] – My Oracle Support Username/Email Address Not Specified”  and many confuse on which parameter should be set to ignore it.

Below paramters are used to download updates/patches from my oracle support site:
MYORACLESUPPORT_USERNAME=
MYORACLESUPPORT_PASSWORD=
SECURITY_UPDATES_VIA_MYORACLESUPPORT=
DECLINE_SECURITY_UPDATES=

By default the value for SECURITY_UPDATES_VIA_MYORACLESUPPORT is false, but still it throws the error during installation.
The parameter “DECLINE_SECURITY_UPDATES” holds the key here, it should be true inorder to decline the security updates. By default its false, so the installer checks for my support email id.

Once you set you can invoke the installer:
./runInstaller -silent -responseFile /oracle/database/db_install.rsp -ignoreSysPrereqs -ignorePrereq -showProgress -force

./runInstaller -help   gives you more options:
Preparing to launch Oracle Universal Installer from Usage:
runInstaller  [-options] [(<CommandLineVariable=Value>)*]

Where options include:
-clusterware oracle.crs,<crs version>
