s
swconfig(1M) swconfig(1M)
defined for each selected product.) If set to
true, target compatibility is not enforced.
allow_multiple_versions=false
Prevents the configuration of another, independent version of a product when a version
already is configured at the target.
If set to true, another version of an existing product can be configured in its new location.
Multiple versions can only be installed if a product is locatable. Multiple configured ver-
sions will not work unless the product supports it.
ask=false
When ask=true, executes a request script, which asks for a user response. If
ask=as_needed , the swask command first determines if a response file already exists
in the control directory and executes the request script only when a response file is absent.
If set to
ask=true,orask=as_needed
, you can use the -c
catalog option to specify
the pathname of an exported catalog to store copies of the response file or files created by
the request script.
See swask(1M) for more information on request scripts.
autoremove_job=false
Controls automatic job removal of completed jobs. If the job is automatically removed, job
information (job status or controller/agent logfiles) cannot be queried with
swjob.
autoselect_dependencies=true
Controls the automatic selection of prerequisite, corequisite, and exrequisite software that
is not explicitly selected by the user. This option does not apply to swconfig -u. The
default is:
true. The requisite software will be automatically selected for configuration.
Specifying false causes requisite software, which is not explicitly selected, to not be
automatically selected for configuration.
The autoselect_minimum_dependencies
option is ignored when this option is set
to
false.
autoselect_dependents=false
Controls the automatic selection of dependent software that is not explicitly selected by the
user. A dependent is the opposite of a requisite. A dependent fileset has established either
a prerequisite or a corequisite on the selected fileset. Specifying
true causes dependent
software to be automatically selected for unconfiguration. The default,
false causes
dependent software, which is not explicitly selected, to not be automatically selected for
unconfiguration.
autoselect_minimum_dependencies=false
Controls the automatic selection of the first left-most dependency in a list of OR dependen-
cies that satisfies a requisite when another dependency in the list that also satisfies the
requisite is explicitly selected by the user.
When set to
true, the first left-most dependency in a list of OR dependencies that satisfies
a requisite is not automatically selected when another dependency in the list that also
satisfies the requisite is explicitly selected. If set to false, the first left-most dependency
in a list of OR dependencies that satisfies a requisite is automatically selected even when
another dependency in the list that also satisfies the requisite is explicitly selected.
This option is ignored when the autoselect_dependencies option is set to false.
compress_index=false
Determines whether SD commands create compressed INDEX and INFO catalog files when
writing to target depots or roots. The default of false does not create compressed files.
When set to true, SD creates compressed and uncompressed INDEX and INFO files. The
compressed files are named INDEX.gz and INFO.gz, and reside in the same directories
as the uncompressed files.
Compressed files can enhance performance on slower networks, although they may
increase disk space usage due to a larger Installed Products Database and depot catalog.
SD controllers and target agents for HP-UX 11.01 and higher automatically load the
compressed INDEX and INFO files from the source agent when:
• The source agent supports this feature.
