swremove(1M) swremove(1M)
If the auto_kernel_build
option is set to true, the
autoreboot option must also
be set to
true. If the
auto_kernel_build option is set to
false, the value of the
autoreboot option does not matter.
autoremove_job=false
Controls automatic job removal. If the job is automatically removed, job information (job
status or controller/agent log files) cannot be queried with
swjob.
autoselect_dependents=false
Automatically selects all software that depends on the specified software. When set to
true, and any software that other software depends on is selected for removal,
swremove automatically selects that other software. If set to
false, automatic selec-
tions are not made to resolve requisites.
autoselect_reference_bundles=true
If true, bundles that have the is_sticky attribute set to
true will be automatically
removed when the last of its contents is removed. If
false, the sticky bundles will not
be automatically removed.
compress_index=false
Determines whether SD commands create compressed INDEX and INFO catalog files
when writing to target depots or roots. The default of
false does not create
compressed files. When set to
true, SD creates compressed and uncompressed INDEX
and INFO files. The compressed files are named INDEX.gz and INFO.gz, and reside
in the same directories as the uncompressed files.
Compressed files can enhance performance on slower networks, although they may
increase disk space usage due to a larger Installed Products Database and depot catalog.
SD controllers and target agents for HP-UX 11.01 and higher automatically load the
compressed INDEX and INFO files from the source agent when:
• The source agent supports this feature.
•
INDEX.gz or INFO.gz exist on the source depot.
•
INDEX.gz or INFO.gz are not older than the corresponding uncompressed INDEX
or INFO files.
The uncompressed INDEX or INFO file is accessed by the source agent if any problem
occurs when accessing, transferring, or uncompressing the
INDEX.gz or INFO.gz file.
controller_source=
Specifies the location of a depot for the controller to access to resolve selections. Setting
this option can reduce network traffic between the controller and the target. Use the tar-
get selection syntax to specify the location:
[host][:][path]
This option has no effect on which sources the target uses and is ignored when used with
the Interactive User Interface.
distribution_target_directory=/var/spool/sw
Defines the default location of the target depot.
enforce_dependencies=true
Requires that all dependencies specified by the software_selections be resolved at the
target_selections.Forswremove, if a selected fileset has dependents (that is, other
software depends on the fileset) and they are not selected, do not remove the selected
filesets. If set to false, dependencies will still be checked, but not enforced.
enforce_scripts=true
Controls the handling of errors generated by scripts. If true, and a script returns an
error, the swremove operation halts. An error message appears reporting that the exe-
cution phase failed. If false, all script errors are treated as warnings, and swremove
attempts to continue operation. A warning message appears reporting that the execution
succeeded. The message wording identifies whether the failure occurred in the
configure/unconfigure, checkremove, preremove, or postremove phases.
enforce_selections=false
Controls the behavior of swremove command by checking the
software_selections available.
