Variables
Variables are defined for the services within each template. If you are unsure of which variables to use for
the desired operation, you can:
• allow srp to prompt for the variables
• run srp -help, optionally specifying the template and or service(s) of interest
• reference the man pages for templates of interest
The most commonly used variables are listed below:
ip_address
IP address to dedicate to this HP-UX container. Use dotted-decimal notation for an
IPv4 address and colon-hexadecimal notation for an IPv6 address.
iface Primary or secondary network interface name

trator role for the container.

The following forms may be used to assign values to a variable:

SYSTEM, WORKLOAD, and HP9000 TEMPLATES
One of these templates must be specified when creating a container. Each of these templates directs srp
to provision a container using the services and variables described below.
For example a system container is created using the system template:
srp -add containerName -t system
A workload container is created with the workload template:
srp -add containerName -t workload
The user may specify which container service to manipulate with the -service option of the srp com-
mand.
The following services are required when a container is created: admin, cmpt, init, network.
In addition to the required services the following services are also available: ipfilter, ipsec, login
(workload only), prm, provision (system only).
By default, the following services are specified for a container when it is created: admin, cmpt, init,
login (workload only), network, prm, provision (system only).
