swverify commands, these commands may automatically select additional software to meet
dependencies.
Multiple dependency attributes may be specified for a corequisites attribute or a prerequisites
attribute. There are two types of relationships that can be used when defining multiple dependency
attributes:
• AND - Use the AND relationship to specify multiple dependency attributes, each of which
must be satisfied. The AND relationship is the default.
• OR - Use the OR relationship to specify multiple dependency attributes in a set, where only
one of the set must satisfy the dependency
NOTE: The following procedures apply to both corequisites or prerequisites
dependency attributes.
Procedure 5-10 To add a dependency attribute using the AND relationship
NOTE: When setting a dependency attribute, the AND relationship is the default.
1. From the Package Structure, select the fileset for which you want to add a corequisites
attribute.
2. Select Structure->Add Element(s)->Corequisites. The Corequisites dialog box appears.
3. From the Available Content, select the software elements you want to add to the fileset as
a corequisites attribute.
4. Click Add.
5. Continue adding corequisites as needed.
6. Click OK once all corequisites attributes have been added to the fileset.
Procedure 5-11 To add a dependency attribute using the OR relationship
IMPORTANT: Use the OR relationship when you need to specify multiple corequisites or
prerequisites attributes in a set, where only one of the set must satisfy the dependency. An
OR relationship is specified within an OR corequisites set (or OR prerequisite set). The software
specification value for a given OR set is comprised of the individual software specification for
each corequisites (or prerequisites) attribute it contains. When a new corequisite or
prerequisite is added to an OR set, the software specification value for that attribute is appended
to the OR set's software specification and separated by the pipe symbol (|).
1. From the Package Structure, select the fileset for which you want to add an OR corequisites
set.
2. Select Structure->Add Element(s)->Corequisites. The Corequisites dialog box appears.
3. Select the OR Relations tab.
4. Click Add Set. A new, empty OR corequisites set is added to the Fileset Content.
5. From the Fileset Content, select the appropriate OR corequisites set.
6. From the Available Content, select the software element(s) you want to add to the OR
corequisites set. Multiple software elements may be selected to add to the set.
7. Click Add. The OR corequisites set now contains the additional corequisites attributes.
8. Click OK once all OR corequisites sets and their contents have been added.
Procedure 5-12 To add remote content as a dependency attribute
NOTE: For this procedure, you will use an existing corequisites attribute as a template for
specifying remote content as a corequisites attribute.
1. From the Package Structure, select the fileset for which you want to add remote content.
2. Select Structure->Add Element(s)->Corequisites .The Corequisites dialog box appears.
