NAME

stl_image − setld software subset image data files (∗.image)

DESCRIPTION

Each software product that is distributed for installation with the setld utility has an associated image data file (prodcode.image) created by the kits utility, where prodcode is the unique three-character product code, for example: OAT100.image. The image file contains one record for each subset in the kit, and each record contains three fields separated by whitespace:

Checksum
The modulo-65536 checksum of the subset file (after compression, if the file is compressed)

SizeThe size of the subset file in kilobytes (after compression, if the file is compressed)

Subset name
The product code, subset mnemonic, and version number

EXAMPLES

The following example illustrates a hypothetical OAT.image file:

15923    70 OATODB100
24305   400 OATODBDOC100
