SYS-UNCONFIG(8)  —  MAINTENANCE COMMANDS

NAME

sys-unconfig − undo a system’s configuration

SYNOPSIS

/usr/etc/install/sys-unconfig

AVAILABILITY

SPARCstation1 systems only. 

DESCRIPTION

sys-unconfig packs up a machine to make it ready to be configured again. 

It restores a systems’s configuration to an “as-manufactured” state.  A system’s configuration consists of hostname, YP domain name, timezone and IP address. 

sys-unconfig restores the following:

1.  the default /etc/hosts file

2.  the default hostname in /etc/rc.boot

3.  the default domainname in /etc/rc.single

4.  the default /usr/lib/zoneinfo/localtime file

When sys-unconfig is finished, it will prompt for a system shutdown. 

sys-unconfig is potentially a dangerous utility and can only be run by the super-user. 

FILES

/etc/rc.single

/etc/rc.boot

/etc/hosts

/usr/lib/zoneinfo/localtime

/usr/etc/install/files/sys_info
