swconfig.1m (2012 03)

s
swconfig(1M) swconfig(1M)
higher value for a slow or busy network. Lower values will give faster recognition on
attempts to contact hosts that are not up, or are not running the
swagentd. Each value
is approximately twice as long as the preceding value. A value of 5 is about 30 seconds
for the
ncadg_ip_udp protocol sequence.
run_as_superuser=true
This option controls SD’s nonprivileged mode. This option is ignored (treated as true)
when the invoking user is super-user.
When set to the default value of true, SD operations are performed normally, with per-
missions for operations either granted to a local super-user or set by SD ACLs. (See
swacl(1M) for details on ACLs.)
When set to false and the invoking user is local and is not super-user, nonprivileged
mode is invoked:
• Permissions for operations are based on the user’s file system permissions.
• SD ACLs are ignored.
• Files created by SD have the uid and gid of the invoking user, and the mode of created
files is set according to the invoking user’s umask.
SD’s nonprivileged mode is intended only for managing applications that are specially
designed and packaged. This mode cannot be used to manage the HP-UX operating sys-
tem or patches to it. For a full explanation of nonprivileged SD, see the Software Distri-
butor Administration Guide, available at the
http://www.hp.com/go/sd-docs
web site.

admin_directory
and installed_software_catalog options.
select_local=true
If no target_selections are specified, select the local host as the target of the command.
software=
Defines the default software_selections. There is no supplied default. If there is more
than one software selection, they must be separated by spaces.
srp_parallel=6
This option is only supported in an HP-UX Containers (SRP) enabled system. It enables
the parallel configuration mode on containers. SD limits the number of concurrent
configure operations on containers to the number specified. When a configure operation
on any of the containers gets completed, another container gets selected and the
configuration begins. This process continues until all containers have been completed.
Server and disk performance determines the optimal setting; the default value is 6.
A value of:
0 or 1 Disables parallel configuration mode. Configuration runs in serial mode on one
container at a time.
* Configuration runs concurrently on all containers.
targets=
Defines the default target_selections. There is no supplied default (see select_local
above). If there is more than one target selection, they must be separated by spaces.
verbose=1
Controls the verbosity of the output (stdout). A value of
0 disables output to stdout. (Error and warning messages are always written to
stderr).
1 enables verbose messaging to stdout.
write_remote_files=false
Prevents the configuring of files on a target which exists on a remote (NFS) filesystem.
All files on a remote filesystem will be skipped.
If set to
true and if the superuser has write permission on the remote filesystem, the
remote files will not be skipped, but will be configured.
