Here is some information that I got from IBM on amqicsdn.exe. They told me that they will be added to their documentation.
To perform a silent install of a CSD for MQSeries 5.3 -------------------------------------------------------- 1.Download the CSD from the web 2.Run the install program and note the temporary folder the install files are being extracted to. This should be something like.... 'C:\Program Files\IBM\Source\WebSphere MQ CSD03 EnUs' 3.Exit the CSD install process. 4.'cd' to the temporary directory. 5.'amqicsdn MQPSILENT=1 , would invoke the silent install. . amqicsdn usage flags : MQPLOG : Specifies the log to used during install/uninstall. Eg : "MQPLOG=c:\temp\inst.log" MQPREBOOT : Specifies if reboot is required. Eg: "MQPREBOOT=1" MQPSILENT : Specifies if the installation is silent. Eg: "MQPSILENT=1" MQPUNINST : Specifies the uninstallation. Eg: "MQPUNINST=1" MQPBACKUPPATH : Specifies the Backup Path. Eg: "MQPBACKUPPATH=c:\mqm\backup" . Example : amqicsdn "MQPLOG=c:\temp\inst.log" "MQPSILENT=1" "MQPBACKUPPATH=c:\mqm\backup" . The above assumes you are using the unpacked version of the CSD. If you are using the self-extracting web version, you can either run the downloaded .exe file to unpack first and then do the above, or you can use the following command directly with the downloaded .exe file: . WebSphereMQCSD03EnUs.exe -s -a MQPSILENT=1 . The -s option tells the unpacking to run silently, and the -a option passes the subsequent parameter to amqicsdn.exe. Note the unpacked version will not get deleted in this case.

There is much written about using the response file with setup.exe which was used in 5.2.1, but nothing for the new amqicsdn.exe installer. Any help appreciated. Cheers.
