genufi(8)						      System Manager's Manual							 genufi(8)

NAME
genufi - Generates a User File Inventory (UFI) file SYNOPSIS
/usr/bin/genufi DESCRIPTION
The genufi utility creates a User File Inventory (UFI) file that contains the names of user files created or copied to your system after an installation. Some of these files reside on file systems that are overwritten during a new installation of the operating system. You must have superuser privileges to run the genufi utility, and you must invoke the genufi utility from the /usr/.smdb. directory. To create the UFI file, the genufi utility checks the Master Synchronization Inventory (MSI) file created by the invsync utility to deter- mine which file systems will be overwritten by a complete installation. The genufi utility searches those file systems for user files and writes these entries to the UFI file. File systems that remain intact during a new installation of the operating system are not searched. The genufi utility also filters out certain files and directories that would not commonly be considered for backup. For example, some log files, installation files, and temporary directories do not need to be restored after a complete installation and are not written to the UFI file. The following directories are not included: /tmp /tmp /usr/.smdb. /usr/sys/HOST /var/adm/smlogs /var/adm/syslog.dated /var/rwho /var/tmp In the previous list, HOST represents the hostname of the system (such as /usr/sys/BLUTO) on the system named bluto. The following files are not included: */core */*.dummy */.new.. /osf_boot */.profile */.proto.. /var/adm/binary.errlog /var/adm/xdm/xdm-pid */vmcore /*vmunix Edit the UFI file to remove the entries for files and directories that you do not want to back up. The UFI file is written in the setld inventory file format. Refer to the stl_inv(4) reference page for more information. RESTRICTIONS
You must have superuser privileges to run the genufi utility. You must invoke the genufi utility from the /usr/.smdb. directory. FILES
