HP-UX Reference (11i v1 05/09) - 5 Miscellaneous Topics (vol 9)

s
sd(5) sd(5)
(HP-UX Software Distributor)
required if the media is not a DDS tape or a disk file. Without this option,
swpackage
sets the size to the default of 1,330 Mbytes for tape or to the amount of free space on the
disk up to minfree for a disk file. SD uses the same format across multiple directory
media as it does for multiple serial media, including calculations of the correct size based
partitioning of filesets and setting of the
media_sequence_number
attributes.
Applies to
swpackage.
media_type=directory
Defines the type of distribution to create. The recognized types are
directory and
tape.
Applies to swpackage.
minimum_job_polling_interval=1
Defines in minutes how often the daemon wakes up to scan the job queue for scheduled jobs
that must start. If set to 0, no scheduled jobs are initiated.
Applies to swagentd.
mount_all_filesystems=true
By default, the SD commands attempt to mount all filesystems in the /etc/fstab file at
the beginning of the analysis phase, to ensure that all listed filesystems are mounted before
proceeding. This policy helps to ensure that files are not loaded into a directory that may
be below a future mount point, and that the expected files are available for a remove or ver-
ify operation.
If set to false, the mount operation is not attempted, and no check of the current mounts
is performed.
Applies to swconfig, swcopy, swinstall , swremove, and swverify.
mount_cmd=/sbin/mount
Defines the command called by the agent to mount all filesystems.
Applies to swagent.
objects_to_register=
Defines the default objects to register or unregister. There is no supplied default (see
select_local above). If there is more than one object, they must be separated by
spaces.
Applies to swreg.
one_liner=
Defines the attributes which are listed in the non-verbose listing.
Applies to swlist and swjob.
os_name
This option can be used in conjunction with os_release to specify fileset selection for an
HP-UX update. os_name should only be specified from the command line. Refer to the
SD readme file for correct syntax. You can display the readme file by entering:
swlist -d -a readme SW-DIST [@ host:/depot ]
Applies to swinstall.
os_release
This option can be used in conjunction with os_name to specify fileset selection for an
HP-UX update. os_release should only be specified from the command line. Refer to
the SD readme file for correct syntax. You can display the readme file by entering:
swlist -d -a readme SW-DIST [@ host:/depot ]
Applies to swinstall.
package_in_place=false
If set to true, swpackage will package the specified products such that the target depot
will not contain the files that make up a product. Instead, swpackage inserts references
to the original source files used to build a product. This behavior allows products to be
packaged without consuming the full disk space of copying all the source files into the tar-
get depot.
