This chapter provides descriptions of all software subsets that are
part of the current version of the operating system.
C.1 Base Operating System Software Subset Descriptions
The software subsets described in this section are located on the CD-ROM labeled Operating System Volume 1.
Software subsets are divided into the following categories:
Mandatory software subsets are installed automatically during Full Installations. These software subsets represent the minimum software needed to install and run the operating system on your hardware configuration.
Optional software subsets
represent
a variety of applications that can be installed to enrich the features of
the operating system.
Refer to
Chapter 9
for information
about using the
setld
command to install optional subsets
after the installation.
Conditionally mandatory software subsets
are considered mandatory only when certain hardware or software is detected
during the installation procedure, which makes the software mandatory.
Table C-1
lists the software subsets that are conditionally
mandatory.
In
Table C-1, a group of software
subsets that contains the word
or
means that at least one
of the software subsets is mandatory when the condition is met.
Table C-1: Conditionally Mandatory Software Subsets

C.4.2 Language-Specific Subsets
This section lists each supported language as well as the software subsets
provided with each language.
To reconstruct the actual software subset name,
prefix each subset name with
IOSLL
,
where
LL
is the two-letter language code.
For example,
the subset
CDEMAIL
for Germany (the prefix for German is
DE
) becomes
IOSDECDEMAIL
.
Each subset also has
a three-digit suffix that represents the software version number; so,
IOSDECDEMAIL
becomes
IOSDECDEMAIL505
.
Certain countries share a language; for example, Canada and France both
can use the French language subsets.
The resulting subset name would use both
the country and language code (IOS
LLCC:
LL=language,
CC=country).
So, the
French-Canada X11 subset name, for example, would be
IOSFRCAX11505
.
