pkgparam(1)                    DG/UX R4.11MU05                   pkgparam(1)


NAME
       pkgparam - display package parameter values

SYNOPSIS
       pkgparam [-v][-d device] pkginst [param[ ...]]
       pkgparam -f file [-v] [param[ ...]]

DESCRIPTION
       pkgparam displays the value associated with the parameter or
       parameters requested on the command line.  The values are located in
       either the pkginfo file for pkginst or from the specific file named
       with the -f option.

       One parameter value is shown per line.  Only the value of a parameter
       is given unless the -v option is used.  With this option, the output
       of the command is in this format:

            parameter1='value1'
            parameter2='value2'
            parameter3='value3'

       If no parameters are specified on the command line, values for all
       parameters associated with the package are shown.

       Options and arguments for this command are:

       -v      Specifies verbose mode.  Displays name of parameter and its
               value.

       -d      Specifies the device on which a pkginst is stored.  It can be
               a directory pathname or the identifiers for tape, floppy disk
               or removable disk (for example, /var/tmp, /dev/diskette, and
               /dev/dsk/c1d0s0).  The default device is the installation
               spool directory.  If no instance name is given, parameter
               information for all packages residing in device is shown.

       -f      Requests that the command read file for parameter values.

       pkginst Defines a specific package instance for which parameter
               values should be displayed.  The format pkginst.* can be used
               to indicate all instances of a package.

       param   Defines a specific parameter whose value should be displayed.

DIAGNOSTICS
       If parameter information is not available for the indicated package,
       the command exits with a non-zero status.

SEE ALSO
       pkgmk(1), pkgproto(1), pkgtrans(1).

NOTES
       The -f synopsis allows you to specify the file from which parameter
       values should be extracted.  This file should be in the same format
       as a pkginfo file.  As an example, such a file might be created
       during package development and used while testing software during
       this stage.
