prm2scomp
Syntax:
prm2scomp -pprmpath-sscomppath[-i]
The prm2scomp command generates a minimal configuration for the HP-UX feature Security
Containment—based on a PRM configuration.
Table 29 describes the available options.
Table 29 prm2scomp options/parameters
DescriptionOption/parameter
Uses the PRM configuration file specified by prmpath to generate the Security
Containment configuration. prm2scomp adds SCOMP records to this file to
assign the generated compartments to the PRM groups from which they were
generated.
prmpath cannot specify the currently running configuration.
-pprmpath
Saves the generated Security Containment configuration to the file given by
scmpath.
This file must not already exist and cannot be in a directory that is owned by
a user other than root or is writable by a user other than owner.
-sscmpath
Run prm2scomp interactively and assign network interfaces to the secure
compartments. (Network interfaces are defined in the file
/etc/rc.config.d/netconf.)
For information on the prompts that prm2scomp generates in interactive mode,
see the prm2scomp(1) manpage.
-i
scomp2prm
Syntax:
scomp2prm [-m] -pprmpath
The scomp2prm command generates a minimal PRM configuration from a running Security
Containment system.
Table 30 describes the available options.
Table 30 scomp2prm options/parameters
DescriptionOptions/parameters
Include memory records for each PRM group in the generated PRM configuration
file. Each group’s memory allocation is set to the same value.
-m
Save the generated PRM configuration to the file given by prmpath.-pprmpath
srpgen
Syntax:
srpgen [-m] -fbasepath
The HP-UX feature Security Containment, available for HP-UX 11i v2 (B.11.23) and later, provides
secure compartments. Placing secure compartments inside PRM groups produces Secure Resource
Partitions, or SRPs.
srpgen generates minimal configuration files for both Security Containment and PRM based on
user input. For each SRP name entered, a secure compartment and a PRM group is added to the
configuration files.
Table 31describes the available options.
