Ignite-UX Custom Configuration files
Using noncore.cfg to define applications
Ignite-UX provides a template that you can use to define non-SD (archive based) applications in the
file /opt/ignite/data/examples/noncore.cfg. The following is an excerpt from this file:
###########################################################
##
## Filename: noncore.cfg
##
## @(#) noncore.cfg $Revision: 10.10 $
##
##
## Description:
##
The template file provides a description of itself and how you can use it to define non-core
operating system software installations.
## If the software source is not an "SD" depot, then the
## make_config command cannot be used to generate a config file
## to represent it and therefore the config file would have to
## be manually created. This example gives a starting template
## to use for such a config file.
##
## This config file would be used for a non-coreOS (application)
## tar/cpio archive.
##
When you copy this file do not make the name noncore.cfg, rather rename it to a name that
allows you to observe what application it is defining. The following excerpt describes this concept:
## This config file should be copied to:
## /var/opt/ignite/data/Rel_B.<release>/<filename>
## then edit this new file to match your situation.
##
## The values that you will most likely need to change in this
## new file are:
## nfs_source - IP address and directory path to server
## directory containing the archives.
## archive_path - path name of archive to be loaded from the
## nfs_source location.
## sw_source - tag name of the software source.
## sw_sel - tag name of the software select.
## description - description of software.
## impacts - amount of space needed, for a given selection,
## on each named file system.
##
## Also, you may need to:
## - add or delete any sw_sel's you do not need.
## - run /opt/ignite/lbin/archive_impact on each
## archive and replace the "impacts" statements with
## those given by the archive_impact tool.
##
##
## When done editing this config file, be sure to run:
## /opt/ignite/bin/instl_adm -T -f <filename>
## to check for syntax errors. Then either use manage_index, or
## manually edit the /var/opt/ignite/INDEX file to add a reference
## to the copy of the file you edited.
