stl_ctrl - setld software subset control files (*.ctrl)
Each software subset that is distributed for installation
with the setld utility has an associated subset control
file (subsetname.ctrl), for example: OATODB100.ctrl. This
file, created by kits utility, contains subset attribute
information. After the subset has been installed on a system,
the setld utility places the control file in the
/usr/.smdb. directory.
Each attribute definition in a subset control file is on a
single line as an attribute name and value pair, separated
by an equals sign (NAME=value). The attributes are: The
name (text description) of the product of which this subset
is a component, from the NAME attribute in the product
attributes section of the key file. The text description
of the subset, from the subset descriptor in the key file.
The size in bytes used on the root file system. The size
in bytes used on the /usr file system. The size in bytes
used on the /var file system. Two integers separated by a
colon (I:J). These integers are used by the setld utility
to find the subset on tape media. The first integer specifies
the volume in the product tape set; the second is
the location within that volume. The values established
for this attribute by the kits utility are placeholders;
the actual values are generated by the gentapes command as
the subset is written to tape. The dependency list for
this subset. The value specified by the options field of
this subset's record in the key file.
The following example shows the contents of a hypothetical
OATODB100.ctrl file:
NAME='Orpheus Authoring Tools OATODB100' DESC='Document
Building Tools' ROOTSIZE=12352 USRSIZE=43941 VARSIZE=8704
NVOLS=1:2 MTLOC=1:1 DEPS="." FLAGS=0
Commands: gendisk(1), gentapes(1), kits(1), setld(8)
