NAME

       stl_ctrl - Software subset control files

DESCRIPTION

       Each software subset that is distributed for the setld command has an associated control file.  This control file is created by the kits(1)
       utility.  The control file's name consists of the subset name with the string .ctrl for a suffix.   The	control  file  contains  attribute
       information for the subset.  Once the subset has been installed on a system, the control file is placed in the usr/.smdb.  directory.

       The  attribute definitions in the file are stored one per line as attribute name/value pairs separated by equals signs (=).  The attributes
       are:

       NAME   The name (text description) of the product of which this subset is a component, as given by the NAME attribute defined in the  prod-
	      uct attributes section of the key file.

       DESC   The text description of the subset, as given in the subset descriptor for this subset in the key file.

       ROOTSIZE
	      The size in bytes that are used on the root file system.

       USRSIZE
	      The size in bytes that are used on the usr file system.

       VARSIZE
	      The size in bytes that are used on the ar file system.

       MTLOC  Two  integers  separated	by a colon (:).  These integers are used by the setld utility to find the subset on tape media.  The first
	      number specifies the volume in the product tape set; the second is the location within that volume.  The values established for this
	      attribute  by the kits utility are placeholders.	The actual values are generated as the subset is being written to tape by the gen-
	      tapes command.

       DEPS   The dependency list for this subset.

       FLAGS  The value specified by the flags field of this subset's record in the key file.

EXAMPLES

       The following example shows the contents of OATDCB100.ctrl, the control file for a hypothetical subset: NAME='Orpheus Authoring Tools  OAT-
       DCB100' DESC='Document Building Tools' ROOTSIZE=12352 USRSIZE=43941 VARSIZE=8704 NVOLS=1:2 MTLOC=1:1 DEPS="."  FLAGS=0
