MATLAB: How to mass deploy Matlab R2015a to a bunch of Macs…

mass deployMATLABosxr2015a

I have a FIK and Activation key file.
Need to install it for a number of macs.. Don't want to go each computer and ran the installer one by one as this is very tedious
I've read that there is a setup.exe -InputFile=C:\location when installing silently in PC but I don't know if the same will work in OS X. There is an install command but there seems to be no switch for -InputFile.
Need advice ASAP.
I've tried googling but to no avail.
Thank You in advance.

The documentation for release R2015a includes instructions on how to do this. If you can't access that link, it's in chapter 3 in the install_guide PDF. Here are the basic steps:
  1. Create an installer properties file. Make a copy of the installer properties file template, named installer_input.txt. This file is located in the top-level folder on the MathWorks DVD or in the top level of the folder where you downloaded the software.
  2. Open your installer properties file using any text editor, and enter values for all the specified parameters.
  3. Save your changes to the file.
  4. Start the installer using the -inputFile option to specify the full path of your installer properties file as a command-line argument.
The command to use to perform the installation (with the -inputFile option) on each platform is included in the template file.
