A Summary of Commands pkgadd
UCS 1000 R4.2 Administration 585-313-507 Issue 3 April 2000 548
• -r — Identify a file or directory that contains output from a previous
pkgask session. This file supplies the interaction responses that would be
requested by the package in interactive mode. Response must be a full
path name.
Note: The -r option can be used to indicate a directory name as well as
a filename. The directory can contain numerous response files,
each sharing the name of the package with which it should be
associated. This is used, for example, when adding multiple
interactive packages with one invocation of pkgadd.
Each package needs a response file. If you create response files
with the same name as the package (that is, pkinst1 and pkinst2),
then name the directory in which these files reside after the -r.
• -R — Define the full path name of a subdirectory to use as the rootpath.
All files, including package system information files, are relocated to a
directory tree starting in the specified rootpath.
• -s — Reads the package into the directory spool instead of installing it.
Examples
The following example installs a package from a floppy diskette. The system
prompts you for the name of the package you want to install.
pkgadd -d diskette1
