Software Distributor Administration Guide HP-UX 11i v1, 11i v2, and 11i v3 (5900-2488, September 2012)

The default value is /var/adm/sw for normal operations. For nonprivileged mode (that is, when
the run_as_superuser option is set to true):
• The default value is forced to /var/home/LOGNAME/sw.
• The path element LOGNAME is replaced with the name of the invoking user, which SD-UX reads
from the system password file.
• If you set the value of this option to HOME/path, SD-UX replaces HOME with the invoking
user’s home directory (from the system password file) and resolves path relative to that directory.
For example, if you specified HOME/my_admin for this options, the location would resolve
to the my_admin directory in your home directory.
This option applies to swinstall, swcopy, swremove, swconfig, swverify, swlist,
swreg, swacl, swpackage, swmodify.
