HP-UX Reference (11i v1 05/09) - 5 Miscellaneous Topics (vol 9)

s
sd(5) sd(5)
(HP-UX Software Distributor)
for a definition of these options.
-d Causes the command to operate on target_selections which are software depots rather than
root directories.
-r Causes SD commands to operate on alternate root directories, which must be specified in
the
@ target_selections option. (This option is not required for alternate root operations but
is maintained for backward compatibility. See the
Alternate Root Directory
and Depot Directory
heading above for more information.)
-i Runs the command in interactive mode (Graphical User Interface). See the
Interac-
tive Operation
and Remote Operation headings above for additional details.
-l (HP-UX 10.X only) Runs the command in linkinstall mode, which makes software installed
under a server’s shared root available to a diskless client’s private root.
When run in linkinstall mode,
swinstall:
Creates NFS mounts to the software to make it accessible from the target. This may
involve delayed mounting for alternate roots.
Modifies the target’s fstab file.
Modifies the source’s exports file to add mount permission for the target.
Mounts are created by examining the share_link product attribute. Not all products sup-
port
linkinstall . Some products may be visible without creating a new mount if they
reside under an existing one.
-p Previews the task by executing the session through the analysis phase and exiting before
the command begins to perform the actual task.
-R For swlist, recursively includes all objects to the fileset level.
For swjob: recursively includes all objects to the end_target level.
-u Undo variation of the operation, unconfiguring software using swconfig, unregistering
the specified objects using swreg, or removing the specified jobs using the
swjob com-
mand.
-v Turns on verbose output to stdout. (The command log file is not affected by this option.)
By default, verbose output is enabled for all the SD commands.
-V List the supported data model revisions.
-a attribute
Specifies particular attributes to display or modify using swlist, swmodify, or the
swjob command.
-c catalog
Specifies the pathname of the directory containing an exported catalog. For swask
, this
catalog stores copies of the response files created by request scripts. For
swlist
and
swmodify, this catalog stores output or input for these commands.
-C session_file
Saves the current options and operands to session_file. (You can recall a session file with
the -S session_file option.) See the Session File heading in this manpage for more
information.
-D acl_entry
Deletes an existing entry from the ACL associated with the specified objects using swacl.
-f software_file
Read the list of selections from software_file instead of (or in addition to) the command line
operands.
-F acl_file
Assigns the ACL contained in acl_file to the specified object using swacl.
-J job_id
Executes the previously scheduled job. This option is used by the swagentd to initiate
scheduled jobs.
