(Hewlett-Packard Company)
log_msgid=0
Adds numeric identification numbers at the beginning of SD logfile messages:
0 (default) No identifiers are attached to messages.
1 Adds identifiers to ERROR messages only.
2 Adds identifiers to ERROR and WARNING messages.
3 Adds identifiers to ERROR, WARNING, and NOTE messages.
4 Adds identifiers to ERROR, WARNING, NOTE, and certain other informational mes-
sages.
match_target=false
(Applies only to swinstall.) If set to true, software selection is done by locating
filesets on the source that match the target system’s installed filesets. If multiple targets
are specified, the first in the list is used as the basis for selections.
max_targets=25
When set to a positive integer, SD limits the number of concurrent install or copy opera-
tions to the number specified. As each copy or install operation completes, another target is
selected and started until all targets have been completed.
Server and network performance determines the optimal setting; a recommended starting
point is 25 (the default value). If you set this option to a value of less than one, SD
attempts to install or copy to all targets at once.
mount_all_filesystems=true
Attempt to mount all filesystems in the /etc/fstab file at the beginning of the analysis
phase, to ensure that all listed filesystems are mounted before proceeding. This policy
helps to ensure that files are not loaded into a directory that may be below a future mount
point.
If set to false, the mount operation is not attempted, and no check of the current mounts
is performed.
os_name
(Applies only to swinstall.) This option can be used in conjunction with os_release
to specify the desired OS name during an HP-UX update. The os_name option should
only be specified from the command line. Refer to the SD readme file for correct syntax.
You can display the
readme file by entering:
swlist -a readme -l product SW-DIST
os_release
(Applies only to swinstall.) This option can be used in conjunction with os_name to
specify the desired OS release during an HP-UX update. The
os_release option should
only be specified from the command line. Refer to the SD readme file for correct syntax.
You can display the
readme file by entering:
swlist -a readme -l product SW-DIST
patch_filter=software_specification
This option can be used in conjunction with the autoselect_patches or
patch_match_target
options to filter the selected patches to meet the criteria
specified by software_specification. The default value of this option is
*.*.
patch_match_target=false
If set to true, this option selects the latest patches (software identified by the
is_patch=true attribute) that correspond to software on the target root or depot.
The patch_filter= option can be used in conjunction with patch_match_target
.
patch_save_files=true
(Applies only to swinstall) Saves the original versions of files modified by patches,
which permits the future rollback of a patch. Patched files are saved to
/var/adm/sw/save. When set to false, patches cannot be rolled back (removed)
unless the base software modified by the patch is removed at the same time.
To commit a patch by removing the corresponding saved files, use the swmodify
command’s patch_commit option.
polling_interval=2
Defines the polling interval, in seconds, used by the interactive GUI or TUI of the
Section 1M878 12 HP-UX Release 11i: December 2000
