Hi Ethan,
5.2.3.1
o Says script is copied to
/var/sadm/system/logs/derived/manifest_script
Does this mean that the actual filename will be "manifest_script"
and that you won't be retaining the name of the user's script? If
the original filename is retained, then I'd suggest using
<manifest_script> in the doc. Ditto for /tmp/derived/manifest_script.
No, I actually meant the former.
Is the name of actual script recorded in the log file?
I'm not sure actually. The name of the file as hosted by the install
service
is known to the manifest-locator service, and I'm not sure if
manifest-locator
logs that name into the overall log file (even for regular manifests today).
I'll will check to see what it does and get back to you on this.
5.3.3
o From the syntax specified for set-criteria, it looks like you
can't append the criteria in an XML file to existing criteria. Any
reason why not? That seems like something that might be desirable.
It was intentionally left out. The assumption was that written XML
files wouldn't be desirable to piecewise append to the already set
criteria.
Having said that, we can add that functionality later if needed.
I missed this the first time, but I also noticed that the syntax for
set-criteria shouldn't have the outermost set of square brackets
since, unlike add-manifest, the criteria is required.
Yes, you're right. I'll remove the square brackets there.
o if you use -a to append criteria and the same/similar criteria
already exists for the manifest, what is the result? For example, if
current criteria is MEM="2048-unbounded" and then the appended
criteria is MEM="1024-4096"?? Or if current criteria is
IPV4=”10.0.2.100-10.0.2.199” and appended criteria is
IPV4=”10.0.5.100-10.0.5.199”??
An error occurs. This would generate the same error as if
you specified the conflicting criteria when the manifest was
originally added.
So that would mean that if someone wanted to modify or replace an
existing criteria, they'd have to add all of the criteria from scratch
again, correct?
Yes.
