Examples
Install from a CD mounted and registered on the system grendel:
swinstall -s grendel:/cdrom/QPK1100 \
-x patch_match_target=true -x autoreboot=true
Use the swinstall command’s preview mode (-p option) to get an idea of what to expect for
the bundle you want to install. For example:
swinstall -p -s grendel:/cdrom/QPK1100 \
-x patch_match_target=true
-x autoreboot=true
Install of product A1234AA from registered depot /var/spool/sw on the system grendel:
swinstall –s grendel:/var/spool/sw A1234AA
swcopy Command
The swcopy command copies software from one depot to another. This can be particularly useful
if software exists in several depots. For example, you can copy all of the contents of individual
patches into a single depot from which the group can be loaded in a single session and with a
single reboot (if needed).
