logdetail=false

Controls the amount of detail written to the logﬁle. When set to

true, this option adds

detailed task information (such as options speciﬁed, progress statements, and additional

summary information) to the logﬁle. This information is in addition to log information con-

trolled by the

loglevel option.

See loglevel below and the sd(5) manual page, by typing

man 5 sd, for more infor-

mation.

logfile=/var/adm/sw/swask.log

Deﬁnes the default log ﬁle for

swask.

loglevel=1

Controls the log level for the events logged to the command logﬁle and the target agent

logﬁle. A value of

0 provides no information to the logﬁle.

1 enables verbose logging of key events to the log ﬁles.

2 enables very verbose logging, including per-ﬁle messages, to the log ﬁles.

patch_filter=*.*

Used in conjunction with the autoselect_patches

or patch_match_target

options to ﬁlter the available patches to meet the criteria speciﬁed by the ﬁlter. A key use

is to allow ﬁltering by the "category" attribute. Requires patches that are in an enhanced

SD patch format.

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.
