information in Japanese during one invocation of swlist, then view the same information
in English at the next invocation.
Applies to swagent.
source_directory
See distribution_source_directory.
source_file=psf
This keyword defines the default product_specification_file to read as input to the
packaging or swmodify session. It may be a relative or absolute path.
Applies to swpackage and swmodify.
source_tape=/dev/rmt/0m
Defines the default tape location, usually the character-special file of a local tape device. You
can also use the host:path syntax, but the host must match the local host. The -s option
overrides this value.
Applies to swcopy and swinstall.
source_type=directory
The default source type (choices are cdrom, file, directory, or tape) that points to one
of the next three options. The source type derived from the -s source file option overrides
this default.
The cdrom and tape values apply to swcopy and swinstall. The file value applies
only to swpackage.
srp_parallel=6
This option is only supported in a HP-UX Containers (SRP) enabled system. It enables the
parallel installation mode on containers. SD limits the number of concurrent install operations
on containers to the number specified. When an install operation is complete on one container,
another container gets selected and the installation begins. This process continues until
installation is complete on all containers.
Server and disk performance determines the optimal setting; the default value is 6.
A value of:
0 or 1 disables parallel installation mode. Installation runs in serial mode on one
container at a time.
* Installation runs concurrently on all containers.
Applies to swinstall, swremove, and swconfig.
system_file_path=/stand/system
The path to the kernel’s template file. The path is passed to the system_prep_command via
the SW_SYSTEM_FILE_PATH environment variable.
Applies only to swagent.
system_prep_cmd=/usr/lbin/sysadm/system_prep
The kernel build preparation script called by the agent. This script must do any necessary
preparation so that control scripts can correctly configure the kernel that is about to be built.
Applies only to swagent.
targets=
There is no supplied default (see also select_local). If there is more than one target, they
must be separated by spaces. Targets are usually specified in a target input file, as options
on the command line or in the GUI.
Applies to all commands.
