stl_inv - setld inventory file format DESCRIPTION
Each software product that is distributed as subsets for the setld(8) command has an associated inventory file. This inventory file is created by the kits(1) utility. The inventory file's name consists of the product's unique 3-letter name with the string .inv for a suf- fix. The inventory file contains one record for each subset in the kit. Each record contains the following twelve fields in order, sepa- rated by TAB characters: Flags The per-file software management flag, a 16-bit unsigned integer Size The actual number of bytes in the file Checksum The modulo-65536 checksum of the file. Hard links, directories, FIFOs, and sockets have 00000 in this field. uid The user ID of the file's owner gid The group ID of the file's owner Mode The 6-digit octal representation of the file's mode Date The file's last modification date Revision The version code of the product that includes the file Type A letter that describes the file: b Block device c Character device d Directory containing one or more files f Regular file. For regular files with a link count greater than one, see file type l. l Hard link. There are other files in the same inventory which have the same inum. The first of these files in ASCII collating sequence is listed in the referent field. p Named pipe (FIFO) s Symbolic link = UNIX domain socket Pathname The dot-relative (./) pathname of the file Link-to For file types l and s, the path to which the file is linked; for types b and c, an integer representing the major and minor num- bers of the device; for all other types, none Subset name The name of the subset containing the file RESTRICTIONS
Fields must be separated by TAB characters. RELATED INFORMATION

invcutter(1) General Commands Manual invcutter(1) NAME
invcutter - Generates a subset inventory file SYNOPSIS
/usr/lbin/invcutter [-d] [-f root-path] [-v version-code] OPTIONS
Enables debugging. No useful diagnostics are printed. Specifies an alternate root path for finding file attribute information. Specifies a 3-digit version code for use in the version field of the output records. The default version code is 010. DESCRIPTION
The contents of a software product kit for the setld(8) command are specified by a master inventory file whose format is described in the stl_mi(4) reference page. The invcutter command processes a master inventory file by reading inventory records from standard input and writing one record to standard output for each record read. The information contained in the output record is derived from the input record and from the file attribute information in the file hierar- chy rooted in the current directory. RESTRICTIONS
Input records must be sorted in ascending ASCII order on the pathname field. The invcutter command cannot process input-specified files which exist as sockets in the file hierarchy. If an input-specified file has a link count greater than 1, all other links to the file must be represented in the input. RETURN VALUES
An exit status of 0 indicates success. An exit status of 1 indicates an error. See ERRORS. ERRORS
The program cannot set its working directory to the pathname directory specified with the -f option. The error-message provides additional information. The nth input record is not in the correct sort order. All input records must be in ascending ASCII collating sequence on the pathname field. An error has occurred attempting to read the attributes of filename. The error-message explains exactly what happened. The file named by pathname is a socket. Sockets are not supported as valid file types for distribution. File pathname in the master inventory is linked to n files which do not appear in the master inventory. Check the inventory for validity with the newinv program. This informational message states how many files with unresolved links were detected in the input inventory. EXAMPLES
The following command generates inventory records for the master inventory entries in PDS020.mi. Output records contain version fields set to 020: invcutter -v 020 < PDS020.mi SEE ALSO
