attempted. SD supports both the tcp (ncacn_ip_tcp:[2121]) and udp (ncadg_ip_udp:[2121])
protocol sequence on most platforms. See the
sd.5
man page by typing man 5 sd for
more information.
rpc_timeout=5
Relative length of the communications timeout. This is a value in the range from 0 to 9 and
is interpreted by the DCE RPC. Higher values mean longer times; you may need a higher
value for a slow or busy network. Lower values will give faster recognition on attempts to
contact hosts that are not up or not running
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. This option may not have any noticeable impact when
using the ncacn_ip_tcp 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 permis-
sions 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 system
or patches to it. For a full explanation of nonprivileged SD, see the Software Distributor
Administration Guide, available at the
http://docs.hp.com web site.
See also the
admin_directory
and installed_software_catalog options.
show_superseded_patches=false
Displays or hides superseded patches in command line swlist output. In the default
state of false, swlist will not display superseded patches even if you perform a
swlist command on the superseded patch. Setting this option to true permits display
of superseded patches. This option applies to command line swlist only. In an interac-
tive session, swlist -i always shows superseded patches regardless of the value of this
option.
select_local=true
If no target_selections are specified, select the default
target_directory of the local
host as the target_selection for 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.
software_view=all_bundles
Indicates the software view to be used as the default level for the software listing in the
GUI. It can be set to all_bundles , products, or a bundle category tag (to indicate to
show only bundles of that category).
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=0
Controls how attribute values are displayed. A value of
0 displays only the attribute value.
1 displays both the attribute keyword and value. (See the -v option above.)
