tarsets - subset kitting command file generator
/usr/lbin/tarsets [-d] pathname
Enable debugging. Debug trace diagnostics are written to
ts.dbg
in the current directory.
The tarsets command is used by the kits utility to produce software kits for use with the setld(8) utility. The tarsets 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 pathname argument specifies the root directory for the file hierarchy containing the files to be kitted in the subset.
All error diagnostics are written to a file named
stderr
in the current directory.
The output command procedure produces multiple
tar
files. Each
tar
file has a goal size of 400Kb. The command
procedure is modified automatically to produce a single subset image when
tarsets
is called from the
kits
utility.
The
tarsets
command returns an exit status of
0
unless a hard link referenced in the inventory cannot be found
in the input hierarchy, in which case the status is
1.
The input record on line
n
is
not in subset inventory format.
The input record for
path1
contains
a pointer to
path2
in the referent field and
path2
does not appear in the inventory. This error indicates
that
path2
was deleted from the inventory after
being created by the
invcutter
command.
