usync(8)							      usync(8)

NAME
       usync - synchronize two setld inventory files to reflect current system
       status

SYNOPSIS
       /usr/lbin/usync [-d] file1 file2

OPTIONS
       Enables debugging.  This will print the pairs of pathnames  being  syn‐
       chronized on the standard output.

DESCRIPTION
       The usync command is used to achieve inventory synchronization by merg‐
       ing two inventory files according to the pathname field of  the	inven‐
       tory records.  The result is directed to standard output.

       If  the two inventory files contain records with the same pathname, the
       record in file2 is written and the record  in  file1  is	 ignored.   If
       either  inventory  file	contains  a  pathname not present in the other
       file, the record containing that pathname is written to	standard  out‐
       put.  To reflect the current system inventory, file2 should represent a
       later installation than file1.

RESTRICTIONS
       The two inventory files must be sorted in ascending ASCII  sequence  on
       the pathname field.

ERRORS
       usync: file is corrupt

	      Explanation:

	      Records in one of the inventory files are not sorted properly.

EXAMPLES
       The  following  command	produces a synchronized inventory for two ver‐
       sions of the OATDCB subset: /usr/lbin/usync OATDCB100.inv OATDCB120.inv

FILES
       Subset inventory files
