If errors encountered while parsing the PSF result in no valid product definitions,
swpackage ter-
minates. All errors are logged to both stderr and the logfile. In summary, the
swpackage user can:
• Specify one or more products;
• For each product, specify one or more filesets.
• For each fileset, specify one or more files.
• (optional) Specify attributes for the target depot/tape;
• (optional) Specify one or more bundles, defining the bundle contents;
• (optional) Specify vendor information for products and bundles;
• (optional) Specify category information for products, bundles and patches.
• (optional) For each product, specify one or more subproducts, defining the subproduct contents;
• (optional) For each product or fileset, specify one or more control scripts.
RETURN VALUES
The
swpackage command returns:
0 The products specified in the product_specification_file were successfully packaged into the
target depot/tape.
1 An error occurred during the swpackage session (for example, bad syntax in the
product_speci fication_file.) Review stderr or the log file for details.
DIAGNOSTICS
The
swpackage command writes to stdout, stderr, and to the logfile.

. The
user can specify a different logfile by modifying the
logfile option.
EXAMPLES
Package the products defined in the PSF products into the default target depot:
swpackage -s products
Preview the same operation (do not create the target depot), and generate very verbose output:
swpackage -p -vv -s products
Package the products into the target depot no_files, insert references to the source files instead of copying
them into the depot:
swpackage -s products -x package_in_place=true @ no_files
Re-package a specific fileset:
swpackage -s products -x package_in_place=true product.fileset @ no_files
Re-package the entire contents of the depot /var/spool/sw onto the tape at /dev/rmt/0m:
swpackage -s /var/spool/sw -x media_type=tape @ /dev/rmt/0m
FILES
/dev/rmt/0m
The default location of a source and target tape. (Note that SD can read both tar and cpio tape
depots.)
$HOME/.swdefaults
Contains the user-specific default values for some or all SD options.
