Bundles and subproducts are recursive. Bundles can contain other bundles and subproducts can
contain other subproducts.
The \* software specification selects all products. Use this specification with caution.
The version component has the form:
[,r <op> revision][,a <op> arch][,v <op> vendor]
[,c
<op> category][,q=qualifier][,l=location]
[,fr
<op> revision][,fa <op> arch]
location applies only to installed software and refers to software installed to a location other than
the default product directory.
fr and fa apply only to filesets.
The <op> (relational operator) component can be of the form:
=, ==, >=, <=, <, >,or!=
which performs individual comparisons on dot-separated fields.
For example, r>=B.10.00 chooses all revisions greater than or equal to
B.10.00. The sys-
tem compares each dot-separated field to find matches.
The
= (equals) relational operator lets you specify selections with the shell wildcard and
pattern-matching notations:
[], *, ?, !
For example, the expression r=1[01].* returns any revision in version 10 or version 11.
All version components are repeatable within a single specification (e.g. r>=A.12, r<A.20).
If multiple components are used, the selection must match all components.
Fully qualified software specs include the
r=, a=, and
v= version components even if they con-
tain empty strings. For installed software,
l= is also included.
No space or tab characters are allowed in a software selection.
The software instance_id can take the place of the version component. It has the form:
[instance_id]
within the context of an exported catalog, where instance_id is an integer that distinguishes ver-
sions of products and bundles with the same tag.
Target Selections
The swverify command supports the following syntax for each target_selection. The : (colon) is
required if both a host and directory are specified.
[host][:][/directory]
EXTERNAL INFLUENCES
Default Options
In addition to the standard options, several SD behaviors and policy options can be changed by editing the
default values found in:
/var/adm/sw/defaults
the system-wide default values.
$HOME/.swdefaults
the user-specific default values.
Values must be specified in the defaults file using this syntax:
[command_name.]option=value
The optional command_name prefix denotes one of the SD commands. Using the prefix limits the change in
the default value to that command. If you leave the prefix off, the change applies to all commands.
You can also override default values from the command line with the -x or -X options:
command -x option=value
command -X option_file
