How to Reset Configuration Parameters to the Default Values

You must reset parameter values explicitly. You cannot use the smpatch command to reset all parameter values at once.

Steps

1. Become an appropriately authorized user or assume a role that includes the Software Installation profile or the solaris.admin.patchmgr.* authorization.

   The System Administrator profile includes the appropriate profiles. To create the role and assign the role to a user, see Configuring RBAC (Task Map) in System Administration Guide: Security Services.

2. Reset a configuration parameter for your patch management environment to its default value.

   # smpatch unset parameter-name...
