NAME
       invsync - Synchronizes system inventory

SYNOPSIS
       /usr/bin/invsync

DESCRIPTION
       The  invsync  utility  creates a Master Synchronization Inventory (MSI)
       file and a Customized File Inventory (CFI) file.	 These	files  can  be
       used to preserve the customized or modified state of your system in the
       event of a new installation.  The MSI file contains a complete list  of
       files  installed by the setld utility and the state of those files when
       they were installed.  The CFI file contains the names  of  those	 files
       installed  by  the  setld utility that have been customized or modified
       since the installation.	The files listed in the CFI file are overwrit‐
       ten if you perform a new installation of the operating system.

       You must have superuser privileges to run the invsync utility.

       The  invsync  utility  calls  the usync utility to create the MSI file.
       After the MSI file is created, the invsync utility  calls  the  udetect
       utility	to  compare  the state of the files shown in the MSI file with
       the current state of the files installed on  the	 system.   If  a  file
       state differs, an entry is written to the CFI file.

       Edit  the CFI file to remove the entries for files that you do not want
       to back up. The CFI file and the MSI file  are  written	in  the	 setld
       inventory  file	format.	 For more information, refer to the stl_inv(4)
       refernce page.
