tarsets(1)tarsets(1)Nametarsets - subset kitting command file generator
Syntax
/usr/sys/dist/tarsets [ -d ] pathname
Arguments
pathname
Specify the root directory for the file hierarchy containing the files
to be kitted in the subset.
Description
The command reads subset inventory records from standard input and
writes a command procedure to standard output. This command procedure
contains the commands required to create subset images for the subset
described in the input.
The command is used by the utility to produce software kits for use
with the utility.
All error diagnostics are written to the file stderr in the current
directory.
Options-d Enable debugging. Debug trace diagnostics are written to ts.dbg
in the current directory.
Restrictions
The output command procedure produces multiple tar files. Each tar
file has a goal size of 400Kb. This is an anachronism from the days of
software distribution on RX50 diskettes. The command procedure is mod‐
ified automatically to produce a single subset image when is called
from the utility.
Return Values
The exit status from the command is zero unless a hard link referenced
in the input inventory cannot be found in the input inventory, in which
case the status is 1.
Diagnostics
Invalid Record on line n
The input record on line n is not in subset inventory format.
path1 -> path2 link reference unresolved.
The input record for path1 contains a pointer to path2 in the
referent field and path2 does not appear in the inventory. This
indicates that path2 was deleted from the inventory after being
created by the invcutter command.
Warning: file filename is n blocks too large for diskette
This is an obsolete message. It can be ignored.
Writing Oversized File Volume...
This is an obsolete message. It can be ignored.
i Blocks, j Chars on Volume k
This is an informational message. The number j is the number of
characters in the command written to the output to produce vol‐
ume k.
Files
stderr Diagnostic output.
ts.dbg Debug diagnostic output.
