Universal Products Install Merge - Usage
Usage
As input, UPIMERGE typically uses an archived configuration file or component definition file. However, it can use any file as input, provided that the file is in standard keyword / value format.
UPIMERGE output is a file containing the options and values from the input file, merged with those in the output file. For each option in the output file, UPIMERGE replaces its value with the value of a matching option in the input file. If the input file contains options not defined in the output file, UPIMERGE adds those options to the end of the output file.
UPIMERGE does not attempt to sequence the entries that it adds to the output file. Thus, the order of options in the output file may not match the order of the same options in the input file.
If the input file contains more than one entry for an option, UPIMERGE adds every entry to the output file. The application will use the value of the last entry that appears in the output file.
UPIMERGE does not update any comments in the output file. Options that reside only in the output file are either commented out or left as is, depending on the command line parameters specified.
Note
UPIMERGE has no effect on a Universal Agent application's behavior if the local Universal Broker is in managed mode. In that environment, configurations and component definitions reside in a database file, not a text file. Use the I-Management Console application to manage configurations for managed installations.
