package package_name [add | delete]

package can be used with both the initial installation and upgrade options.

package designates whether a package should be added to or deleted from the software group that will be installed on the system. add or delete indicates whether the package should be added or deleted. If you do not specify add | delete, add is set by default.

package_name must be in the form SUNWname. Use the pkginfo -l command or Admintool (choose Software from the Browse menu) on an installed system to view detailed information about packages and their names. Table A-3 and Table A-4 also provide a list of the packages included in each software group.

For Upgrade:

• All packages already on the system are automatically upgraded.

• If you specify package_name add, and package_name is not installed on the system, the package is installed.

• If you specify package_name delete, and package_name is installed on the system, the package is deleted before the upgrade begins.

• If you specify package_name delete, and package_name is not installed on the system, the package is prevented from being installed if it is part of a cluster that is designated to be installed.
