Logging
Both interactive and non-interactive
swremove sessions log summary events at the host where the com-
mand was invoked. They log detailed events to the
swagent logfile associated with each target_selection.
Command Log
A non-interactive
swremove session logs all stdout and stderr messages to the the logfile
/var/adm/sw/swremove.log
. Similar messages are logged by an interactive
swremove ses-
sion. The user can specify a different logfile by modifying the
logfile option.
Target Log
A
swagent process performs the actual remove operation at each target_selection. When removing
installed software, the
swagent logs messages to the file
var/adm/sw/swagent.log
beneath
the root directory (for example,for example,for example,for example,
/ or an alternate root direc-
tory). When removing available software (within a depot), the
swagent logs messages to the file
swagent.log beneath the depot directory (for example,
/var/spool/sw
).
You can view command and target log files using the
sd or swjob command.
swagentd Disabled
If the
swagentd daemon has been disabled on the host, it can be enabled by the host’s system administra-
tor by setting the SW_ENABLE_SWAGENTD
entry in /etc/rc.config.d/swconfig to 1
and exe-
cuting
/usr/sbin/swagentd -r
.
