Use the following syntax to run the update-ux command:
update-ux -s
source_location [-?] [-n|-y] [-i]
[-f
selection_file ] [-x option = value ] [ sw_spec ...]
where:
-s
source_location
Specifies the source containing the new software depot.
Possible locations are a local directory, a mounted DVD
containing a depot, or a remote system-and-depot
combination. All paths used in the
source_location
must be absolute paths. If
source_location is a
remote system and depot combination, specify the
remote system first, followed by the absolute path to
the remote depot, separated by a colon with no spaces;
for example: swperf:/var/spool/sw
-? Prints the usage statement.
-n|-y Specifies whether or not update-ux issues a message
and waits for your response to continue whenever
something unexpected is encountered. Specify -n first
(or omit this option) to have update-ux “not continue”
when an error is issued. When you have reviewed or
resolved all errors, use -y instead of -n to have
update-ux ignore all messages that would otherwise
cause update-ux to wait for a user response.
-i Specifies the swinstall interactive user interface to
select software products from a depot or bundle during
the update. For more information, refer to the swinstall
(1M) manpage.
