If set to true during swcopy or swpackage, the resulting depots are
smaller, unless you also set uncompress_files to true.
Applies to swcopy, swinstall and swpackage.
• compress_index=false
Enhances performance on slower networks, although it may increase
disk space usage due to a larger Installed Products Database and
depot catalog. The default of false does not compress INDEX and
INFO files. When set to true, INDEX and INFO files are compressed.
Applies to swinstall, swcopy, swpackage, swmodify, swconfig, and
swremove.
• compression_type=gzip
Defines the default compression type used by the agent (or set by
swpackage) when it compresses files during or after transmission.
If uncompress_files is set to false, the compression type is recorded
for each file compressed so that the correct uncompression can later
be applied during a swinstall, or a swcopy with uncompress_files
set to true.
The compress_cmd specified must produce files with the
compression_type specified.
The uncompress_cmd must be able to process files of the
compression_type specified unless the format is gzip which is
uncompressed by the internal uncompressor (funzip). To use gzip you
must load the SW-DIST.GZIP fileset (which is optional freeware). If
the SW-DIST.GZIP fileset is loaded, then you may set the
compression options as follows:
compress_cmd=/usr/contrib/bin/gzip
uncompress_cmd=/usr/contrib/bin/gunzip
compression_type=gzip
Applies to swpackage and swagent.
• config_cleanup_cmd=/usr/lbin/sw/config_clean
Defines the script called by the agent to perform release-specific
configure cleanup steps.
Applies only to swagent.
