global_product_template. (See “ACL Templates ” (page 206) for a
complete discussion.)
NOTE: You can change an ACL with -D, -F, or -M command options. You can only
specify one of these options per command because they are mutually exclusive. If you
don’t specify a -D, -F, or -M option, swacl prints the specified ACLs.
-D acl_entry
Deletes an existing entry from the ACL associated with
the specified object. You can enter multiple -D options.
-F acl_file Assigns the ACL information contained in acl_file
to the object. All existing entries are removed and
replaced by the entries in the file. You can enter only
one -F option.
-M acl_entry
Adds a new ACL entry or changes the permissions of
an existing entry. You can enter multiple -M options.
-f software_file
Reads a list of software selections from a separate file
instead of from the CLI. (See “Software Files” (page 49).)
-t target_file
Reads a list of target host selections from a separate file
instead of from the CLI. (See “Target Files” (page 50).)
-x option=value
Lets you change an option on the command line interface
(CLI) that overrides the default value or a value in an
alternate options file (-X option_file). See “Changing
Command Options” (page 189).
-X option_file Uses the option values in a specified option_file. See
“Using Command Options” (page 50).
software_selections
The software objects for the swacl operation. See
“Software Selections” (page 47).
target_selections
The target of the command. See “Target Selections”
(page 49).
Changing Command Options
You can change the behavior of this command by specifying additional command-line
options when you invoke the command (using the -xoption) or by reading predefined
values from a file. The following table shows the defaults and options that apply to
swacl.
