stl_sts - setld subset status file
The setld utility generates a subset status file, subset.sts,
before installing each subset. This file
describes the software subset's installation status,
reflecting the success or failure of specific setld utility
processing phases. The setld utility removes the subset
status file after the software subset is deleted.
The /usr/.smdb./subset.sts file is a symbolic link to the
/usr/cluster/members/{memb}/.smdb./subset.sts file.
The following list describes possible values in subset
status files: The software is not on the system. Either
the subset was not installed or it was deleted successfully.
The setld utility is in the process of deleting
the software. The setld -d process has not completed or
failed to delete the subset. The setld utility failed in
the PRE_L phase. Although the software did not load onto
the system, some system changes may have been made. The
setld utility finished the PRE_L phase and the software is
ready to load onto the system. The software is loaded
onto the system, but one or more of the files failed the
verification process and the software is not installed and
cannot be used. The verification process compares the size
and checksum of the file on the system against the inventory
record. If either value does not match, the file
fails verification. The software is loaded onto the system;
all of the subset files are present and verified.
The software is not yet installed on the system, as the
POST_L and C INSTALL phases must run and protected system
files must be moved into place. The software is loaded
onto the system but the setld utility failed in the POST_L
phase. The subset files are present but the software is
not installed. The software is loaded onto the system and
the setld utility completed the POST_L phase. The subset
files are present and the software is ready to be configured
in the C INSTALL phase. This status applies only to
clusters. The software is loaded onto the cluster, the
setld utility completed the POST_L phase, but failed to
finish copying member-specific information to the current
cluster member. The current cluster member has all of the
shared files but not all of the member-specific files.
This status applies only to clusters. The software is
loaded onto the cluster, the setld utility completed the
POST_L phase, and all member-specific files were copied to
the current cluster member. The software is ready to be
configured in the C INSTALL phase on the current cluster
member. The software is loaded onto the system but the
setld utility failed in the C INSTALL phase. The subset
files are present but the software is not configured or
installed. The setld utility completed the C INSTALL
phase and the software is installed on the system. There
are no other installation steps required by the setld
utility, although the software may require additional
setup before use. The subset status file is corrupted and
an unsupported string cannot be mapped to a valid state.
This is a serious condition and may require that you
remove and reinstall the software.
For information about failure recovery when you install
and delete software subsets, refer to the Installation
Guide.
The values in the subset status file are text strings that
correspond to an internal code state. These values are not
identical to either this internal code state or to the
subset status displayed in the output of the setld -i command.
Do not use the contents of the subset status file as input
to a program such as a subset control program (SCP) that
needs to determine subset status. The values in the subset
status file reflect an internal code state and can
change to reflect updated requirements, while the internal
code states are constant. For additional information about
using internal code states to determine subset status,
refer to the Guide to Preparing Product Kits.
