|
.LP
|
|
.B load_package
|
|
is normally used on systems that come with
|
|
a release preloaded on disk.
|
|
It allows you to load additional packages onto your system.
|
|
.LP
|
|
You must be the super-user to run
|
|
.BR load_package .
|
|
.LP
|
|
Currently,
|
|
.B load_package
|
|
is a front end to
|
|
.BR setup_exec (8),
|
|
and makes assumptions about the architecture,
|
|
the kernel, and application executables paths
|
|
based on the system it's running on.
|
|
However,
|
|
.B load_package
|
|
undoes the modifications to
|
|
.B /etc/exports
|
|
that
|
|
.BR setup_exec (8)
|
|
makes.
|
|
.LP
|
|
When support for a
|
|
\s-1SPARC\s0station 1
|
|
client is added to a server,
|
|
.B load_package
|
|
is automatically installed in the
|
|
Sun-4 system's
|
|
.B .\|.\|./suninstall/script
|
|
directory.
|
|
.LP
|
|
If you are running
|
|
.B load_package
|
|
on the same system that the
|
|
additional packages will be used on and the standard
|
|
.I execpath
|
|
.RB ( /export/exec/kernel_arch )
|
|
and
|
|
.I kvmpath
|
|
.RB ( /export/exec/kvm/kernel_arch )
|
|
are used, no
|
|
.B load_package
|
|
options need to be specified.
|
|
.LP
|
|
If you are running
|
|
.B load_package
|
|
on a server to add packages for
|
|
a client and the standard
|
|
.I execpath
|
|
.RB ( /export/exec/kernel_arch )
|
|
and
|
|
.I kvmpath
|
|
.RB ( /export/exec/kvm/kernel_arch )
|
|
are used, you need to
|
|
specify only the client's kernel architecture.
|
|
.LP
|
|
If neither of the above cases apply to you, you may completely
|
|
specify the application architecture executable path name, the
|
|
kernel architecture executable path name and the kernel
|
|
architecture of the system the additional packages will run on.
|
|
.SH OPTIONS
|
|
.TP 12
|
|
.BI \-a " kernel_arch"
|
|
Specify the kernel architecture of the system whose
|
|
executables are being installed.
|
|
See
|
|
.BR arch (1)
|
|
for more information on kernel and application architectures.
|
|
Defaults to the value returned by
|
|
.RB ` "arch \-k" ',
|
|
if not specified.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.BI \-e " execpath"
|
|
Specify the full path name of the application architecture executables
|
|
directory.
|
|
This is usually
|
|
.BR /export/exec/appl_arch .
|
|
Defaults to
|
|
.BR /export/exec/\s-1KERNEL_ARCH\s0 ,
|
|
if not specified.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.BI \-k " kvmpath"
|
|
Specify the full path name of the kernel architecture executables
|
|
directory.
|
|
This is usually
|
|
.BR /export/exec/kvm/kernel_arch .
|
|
Defaults to
|
|
.BR /export/exec/kvm/\s-1KERNEL_ARCH\s0 ,
|
|
if not specified.
