Howdy again pkg folks.
I have another related question:
The ICT in the installer also issues:
pkg set-property send-uuid True
I've noticed by default pkg sets the UUID on full images but "send-uuid
= False
e.g.:
grep -i uuid /var/pkg/cfg_cache
uuid = f4c8a9d7-144e-11de-bb5d-00144f8dc846
send-uuid = False
What's the impact of send-uuid = False?
The only impact is that the publisher's selected repository (e.g.
pkg.opensolaris.org/dev) will not receive a unique identifier for the
client (we won't send one in the http headers), and so has no way to
guaranteed identify a set of transactions as being for that same client.
Eventually, there is a plan to allow the depot to reject connections
from clients that don't supply one per-administrator policy. This is
intended for use by corporate clients, etc.
