option to value and overrides default
values or a values in options files. See “Changing
Command Options” on page 120.
-X
option_file
Read session options and behaviors from
option_file .
See “Changing Command Options” on page 120.
software_selections
The software objects for which information will be
modified. See “Software Selections” on page 56.
target_selection
A single, local
target_selection . (See “Target
Selections” on page 58.) If you are operating on the
primary root, you do not need to specify a
target_selection because the target / is assumed.
When operating on a software depot, the
target_selection specifies the path to that depot. If
the -d option is specified and no
target_selection is
specified, then the default
depot_directory is
assumed.
NOTE In general, use caution when using the -u option with the -a option. If -u
is used and -a is also specified, the -a option deletes the
attribute from
the given
software_selections (or deletes the value from the set of
values currently defined for the attribute ).
