typing man 5 sd for more information.
NOTE: The language in which the SD agent and daemon log messages are displayed is
set by the system configuration variable script,
/etc/rc.config.d/LANG
.For
example,
/etc/rc.config.d/LANG
, must be set to
LANG=ja_JP.SJIS
or
LANG=ja_JP.eucJP
to make the agent and daemon log messages display in
Japanese.
LC_ALL Determines the locale to be used to override any values for locale categories specified by
the settings of
LANG or any environment variables beginning with
LC_.
LC_CTYPE Determines the interpretation of sequences of bytes of text data as characters (e.g.,
single-versus multibyte characters in values for vendor-defined attributes).
LC_MESSAGES
Determines the language in which messages should be written.
LC_TIME Determines the format of dates (create_date and mod_date) when displayed by
swlist.
Used by all utilities when displaying dates and times in
stdout, stderr, and log-
ging
.
TZ Determines the time zone for use when displaying dates and times.
Environment variables that affect scripts:
SW_CATALOG
Holds the path to the Installed Products Database (IPD), relative to the path in the
SW_ROOT_DIRECTORY
environment variable. Note that you can specify a path for
the IPD using the
installed_software_catalog
default option.
SW_CONTROL_DIRECTORY
Defines the current directory of the script being executed, either a temporary catalog
directory, or a directory within in the Installed Products Database (IPD). This variable
tells scripts where other
control scripts for the software are located (e.g. subscripts).
SW_CONTROL_TAG
Holds the tag name of the control_file being executed. When packaging software, you
can define a physical name and path for a control file in a depot. This lets you define the
control_file with a name other than its tag and lets you use multiple control file
definitions to point to the same file. A control_file can query the
SW_LOCATION
Defines the location of the product, which may have been changed from the default pro-
duct directory. When combined with the SW_ROOT_DIRECTORY
, this variable tells
scripts where the product files are located.
SW_PATH A PATH variable which defines a minimum set of commands available to for use in a
control script (e.g. /sbin:/usr/bin
).
SW_ROOT_DIRECTORY
Defines the root directory in which the session is operating, either "/" or an alternate
root directory. This variable tells
control scripts the root directory in which the pro-
ducts are installed. A script must use this directory as a prefix to SW_LOCATION to
locate the product’s installed files. The configure script is only run when
SW_ROOT_DIRECTORY is /.
SW_SESSION_OPTIONS
Contains the pathname of a file containing the value of every option for a particular
command, including software and target selections. This lets scripts retrieve any com-
mand options and values other than the ones provided explicitly by other environment
variables. For example, when the file pointed to by SW_SESSIONS_OPTIONS is made
available to a request script, the targets option contains a list of
software_collection_specs for all targets specified for the command. When the file
pointed to by
SW_SESSIONS_OPTIONS is made available to other scripts, the targets
option contains the single software_collection_spec for the targets on which the script is
being executed.
SW_SOFTWARE_SPEC
This variable contains the fully qualified software specification of the current product or
fileset. The software specification allows the product or fileset to be uniquely identified.
