Software Distributor Administration Guide (March 2009)

If false (default), prohibit the packaging/modifying of a file with size greater than
or equal to 2 gigabytes.
If true, permit the packaging/modifying of a file with size greater than or equal to
2 gigabytes. If the file is packaged or modified in a depot, then the depot can only
be used by HP-UX 11i v1 (B.11.11) December 2005 SD, 11i v2 (B.11.23) December
2005 SD, 11i v3 (B.11.31) SD, and newer releases of SD. Those releases of SD support
packaging and installing a large file up to 2 terabytes (2048 gigabytes).
Applies to swpackage and swmodify.
• allow_large_serial_depot=false
Specifies if swpackage is allowed to create a serial depot greater than 2 gigabytes.
If false (default), prohibit the creation of a serial depot greater than 2 gigabytes.
If true, permit the creation of a serial depot greater than 2 gigabytes. The depot is
only usable by HP-UX 11i v1 (B.11.11) December 2004 SD, 11i v2 (B.11.23) March
2005 SD, 11i v3 (B.11.31) SD, and newer releases of SD.
Applies to swpackage.
• allow_multiple_versions=false
Normally set to false, so installed or configured multiple versions (for example,
the same product, but a different revision, installed into a different location) are
disallowed. Even though multiple installed versions of software are supported if
the software is locatable, multiple configured versions do not work unless the
product supports it.
If set to true, you can install and manage multiple versions of the same software.
Applies to swconfig, swinstall, and swverify.
• allow_partial_bundles=true
Determines whether to process partial bundles without issuing warnings or notes
to log files.
If true (default), swpackage packages what is available in the source PSF, ignoring
missing or ambiguous bundle contents. Bundles are wrappers around products,
so you must make sure the bundle contents are placed in the resulting depot, if
they are not in the PSF. Otherwise, the missing/ambiguous contents will not affect
the system after installation.
If false, swpackage expects all the bundle contents to be present in the source PSF
and to be unique. Every content that is ambiguous or missing gets a NOTE and
every bundle that has a missing or ambiguous content gets a WARNING.
Applies only to swpackage.
• allow_split_patches=false
Controls the ability to install or copy part of a patch. Use this option only to resolve
critical problems with the assistance of your HP support representative.
When set to the default value of false, installation or copy of a single fileset from
a multi-fileset patch automatically includes other, “sibling” filesets that are
