Hello Tharindu, I'm not sure file option can be marked as optional :( In fact it is mandatory if you omit user/password/.../tz options
You actually has 2 option inside -i (--install) 1) install on a clean system in this case user/password/.../tz are mandatory and file is optional 2) install as part of upgrade in this case file is mandatory and user/password/.../tz are optional According to above I believe it is not good idea mark file as optional What do you think?
