C    Using the utilupdate Utility

Use the utilupdate utility provided on your distribution media to update the versions of the ris and dmu utilities on a server that is not running the latest version of the operating system. This enables you to serve the latest version of the operating system to client systems.

utilupdate [-r] [-d] -m directory

There are three parameters for the utilupdate utility:

-r

Indicates that the ris utility and associated programs should be updated.

-d

Indicates that the dmu utility and associated programs should be updated.

-m

This parameter is required, and specifies the directory where the operating system distribution is mounted.

Note

If you do not specify the -r or -d parameter, the utilupdate utility only updates the components of the setld utility needed to support the ris and dmu utilities on the server. This updates the version of the setld utility in the /var/adm/ris/bin directory, but does not change the server's version of the setld utility. Refer to the setld(8) reference page for more information.
