Solaris 8 Advanced Installation Guide

Syntax of check

This is the syntax of the check script you use to test a custom_probes file:


$ ./check [[-p path -r file_name]]

Table 20–4 Description of check Script Arguments

Argument 

Description 

-p path

Validates the custom_probes file by using the check script from the Solaris 8 Software 1 of 2 CD image for your platform, instead of the check script from the system you are using. path is the image on a local disk or a mounted Solaris 8 Software 1 of 2 CD.

Use this option to run the most recent version of check if your system is running a previous version of Solaris.

-r file_name

Specifies a file name other than the one named custom_probes. Using this option, you can test the validity of a set of functions before integrating it into the custom_probes file.
