depord(8)
NAME
  depord - Sort subset names into dependency order

SYNOPSIS
  /usr/lbin/depord [-c ctrldir [-c ctrldir]...] [-f [namefile | -]] [-I	 |
  -i] [subsetID [subsetID...]]

OPTIONS
  -c ctrldir
      Searches the directory ctrldir for subset *.ctrl files instead of the
      current directory. You can use multiple -c options.

  -f [namefile|-]
      Reads the subset names from namefile. If you use the "-" argument
      instead of namefile, read the subset names from standard input. The
      namefile and "-" arguments to the -f option are mutually exclusive. If
      you also specify subset names with subsetID operands, they are
      concatenated with the subset names specified with the -f option.

  -I  Includes in the ordered output the names of all prerequisite subsets
      for the subset name argument list. The -I and -i options are mutually
      exclusive.

  -i  Includes in the ordered output the names of all prerequisite subsets
      for the subset name argument list, and excludes from the output any
      prerequisite subsets that are already installed. The -I and -i options
      are mutually exclusive.

OPERANDS
  subsetID
      The name of a subset for dependency checking and ordering. If you also
      specify subset names with the -f option, they are concatenated with
      subsetID operands.

DESCRIPTION
  The depord command reads the subset *.ctrl files in the specified
  directories for dependency information, then sorts the subset name argument
  list (and, optionally, prerequisite subset names) in dependency order.  If
  other directories are not specified, depord searches for subset *.ctrl
  files in the current directory.

    ·  If you install the subsets in the order shown in the depord output,
       subset dependencies are satisfied.

    ·  If you are not using either the -I or -i option and if a subset
       dependency cannot be satisfied by the other specified subset names, an
       error message displays and that subset is not included in the output.

    ·  All subsets in a dependency cycle (where subsets are mutually
       dependent) are ignored. An error message displays, and those subsets
       are not included in the output.

  The depord command is used by the setld(8) utility.

EXAMPLES
  To sort the subsets listed on the command line into dependency order:

       # /usr/lbin/depord OSFCDEDT500 OSFX11500 OSFCDEMIN500
       OSFX11500
       OSFCDEMIN500
       OSFCDEDT500

  To use the -I option to list the prerequisite subsets for OSFDCEDT500,
  sorted into dependency order:

       # /usr/lbin/depord -I OSFCDEDT500
       OSFBASE500
       OSFX11500
       OSFCLINET500
       OSFNFS500
       OSFCDEMIN500
       OSFCDEDT500

  To use the -i option to check the prerequisite subsets for OSFDCEDT500, and
  exclude from the output those that are already installed:

       # /usr/lbin/depord -i OSFCDEDT500
       OSFCDEDT500

RESTRICTIONS
  The -I and -i options are mutually exclusive.

FILES
