stl_ctrl(4)
NAME
  stl_ctrl - Software subset control files

DESCRIPTION
  Each software subset that is distributed for the setld command has an
  associated control file.  This control file is created by the kits(1)
  utility.  The control file's name consists of the subset name with the
  string .ctrl for a suffix.  The control file contains attribute information
  for the subset.  Once the subset has been installed on a system, the
  control file is placed in the usr/.smdb. directory.

  The attribute definitions in the file are stored one per line as attribute
  name/value pairs separated by equals signs (=).  The attributes are:

  NAME The name (text description) of the product of which this subset is a
       component, as given by the NAME attribute defined in the product
       attributes section of the key file.

  DESC The text description of the subset, as given in the subset descriptor
       for this subset in the key file.

  ROOTSIZE
       The size in bytes that are used on the root file system.

  USRSIZE
       The size in bytes that are used on the usr file system.

  VARSIZE
       The size in bytes that are used on the ar file system.

  MTLOC
       Two integers separated by a colon (:).  These integers are used by the
       setld utility to find the subset on tape media.	The first number
       specifies the volume in the product tape set; the second is the
       location within that volume.  The values established for this
       attribute by the kits utility are placeholders.	The actual values are
       generated as the subset is being written to tape by the gentapes
       command.

  DEPS The dependency list for this subset.

  FLAGS
       The value specified by the flags field of this subset's record in the
       key file.

EXAMPLES
  The following example shows the contents of OATDCB100.ctrl, the control
  file for a hypothetical subset:

       NAME='Orpheus Authoring Tools OATDCB100'
       DESC='Document Building Tools'
       ROOTSIZE=12352
       USRSIZE=43941
       VARSIZE=8704
       NVOLS=1:2
       MTLOC=1:1
       DEPS="."
       FLAGS=0
