stl_ctrl(5)stl_ctrl(5)Namestl_ctrl - software subset control files
Description
Each software subset that is distributed on media used with the command
has an associated control file. This control file is created by the
utility. It contains the attribute information for the subset. Once the
subset has been installed on a system, the control file is placed in
the directory. The control file for each subset has a name formed by
appending the extension to the end of the subset name.
The attribute definitions in the file are stored as attribute name and
value pairs separated by an equal sign (=). The attributes are:
NAME
The name of the product of which this subset is a member. This
attribute has the same value as the NAME attribute defined for
the product in the product attributes section of the key file.
DESC
The text description of the subset as given in the subset
descriptor for this subset in the key file.
NVOLS
Obsolete.
MTLOC
A pair of integers separated by a colon (:). These integers are
used by the utility to find the subset on tape media. The first
number is the volume in the product tape set; the second is the
location within the volume. The values established for this
attribute by the utility are place holders. The values are later
updated as the subset is being written to tape by the command.
DEPS
The dependency list for this subset. The information for this
list is taken from the subset descriptor in the key file.
FLAGS
The flags value from the key file.
Examples
Here are the contents of the control file for the subset:
NAME='ULTRIX/UWS T4.0 (RISC)'
DESC='Base System'
NVOLS=1:112
MTLOC=1:1
DEPS="."
FLAGS=1
