where:
-s
source_location
Specifies the source containing the new software depot.
Possible locations are a local directory, a mounted DVD
containing a depot, or a remote system-and-depot
combination. All paths used in the
source_location
must be absolute paths. If
source_location
is a
remote system/depot combination, the remote system
should be specified first, followed by the absolute path
to the remote depot, separated by a colon with no
spaces; for example: swperf:/var/spool/sw
-? Prints the usage statement.
-n|-y update-ux issues a message and waits for your
response to continue whenever something unexpected
is attempted. Specify -n at first (or omit this option) to
have update-ux “not continue” when an error is issued.
When you have reviewed/resolved all errors, use -y
instead of -n to have update-ux ignore all messages
which would otherwise cause update-ux to wait for a
user response.
-i Specifies the swinstall interactive user interface to
select software products from a depot or bundle during
the update. For more information, see the swinstall
(1M) manpage.
-x
option
=
value
Specifies swinstall options to be applied during the
update. For a typical update, no swinstall options are
required. swinstall -p (preview) is not supported. For
information on swinstall options, see the swinstall
(1M) manpage or the Software Distributor
Administration Guide.
sw_spec
Specifies one or more optional software bundles to be
updated, such as an operating environment (OE)
bundle name, a network-driver bundle or Ignite-UX. If
