NAME
       usbcopy - Utility for deploying Oracle Solaris USB install media

SYNOPSIS
       /usr/bin/usbcopy image


DESCRIPTION
       The  usbcopy  command  enables users to deploy removable USB stick with
       Oracle Solaris USB install image created by  Distribution  Constructor.
       The USB stick can later be used to install Oracle Solaris OS.


       The  usbcopy  command supports deployment of both SPARC and x86 install
       images. The deployment process is platform  independent.  For  example,
       SPARC  install  image  can  be deployed on both SPARC and x86 machines.
       During the operation, data written to the USB stick is  verified,  thus
       broken USB sticks are detected.

         You must assume the root role or have root privileges to run the usb-
         copy command.
