No, you don't. You have no right to decide how other people on your system want to use
vi. You should just use
$HOME/.exrc to set the defaults
you want when
you use
vi and
ex (and
view,
rview, etc.) and not assume that you know how I want those utilities to behave when I log in to your system.

updatehome
updatehome(1M) System Administration Commands updatehome(1M)
NAME
updatehome - update the home directory copy and link files for the current label
SYNOPSIS
/usr/bin/updatehome [-cirs]
DESCRIPTION
updatehome reads the user's minimum-label copy and link-control files (.copy_files and .link_files). These files contain a list of files to
be copied and symbolically linked from the user's minimum-label home directory to the user's home directory at the current label.
The Solaris Trusted Extensions dtsession program performs an updatehome whenever a newly labeled workspace is created so that the user's
favorite files are available for use. For example, the user probably wants a symbolic link to such files as .profile, .login, .cshrc,
.exrc, .mailrc, and ~/bin. The updatehome command provides a convenient mechanism for accomplishing this symlink. The user can add files to
those to be copied (.copy_files) and to those to be symbolically linked (.link_files).
OPTIONS
-c Replace existing home-directory copies at the current label. The default is to skip over existing copies.
-i Ignore errors encountered. The default aborts on error.
-r Replace existing home-directory copies or symbolic links at the current label. This option implies options -c and -s. The default is
to skip over existing copies or symbolic links.
-s Replace existing home-directory symbolic links at the current label. The default is to skip over existing symbolic links.
EXIT STATUS
Upon success, updatehome returns 0. Upon failure, updatehome returns 1 and writes diagnostic messages to standard error.
EXAMPLES
Example 1 A Sample .copy_files File
The files that are listed in .copy_files can be modified at every user's label.
.cshrc
.mailrc
.mozilla/bookmarks.html
Example 2 A Sample .link_files File
The files that are listed in .link_files can be modified at the lowest label. The changes propagate to the other labels that are available
to the user.
~/bin
.mozilla/preferences
.xrc
.rhosts
Example 3 Updating the Linked and Copied Files
The .copy_files and .link_files were updated by the user at the minimum label. At a higher label, the user refreshes the copies and the
links. No privileges are required to run the command.
% updatehome -r
