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

    NAME
           update_drv - modify device driver attributes
    
    SYNOPSIS
           update_drv [-f | -v] [-n] driver_module
    
    
           update_drv [-b basedir] [-f | -v] [-n] -a [-m 'permission']
                [-i 'identify-name'] [-P 'privilege'] [-p 'policy'] driver_module
    
    
           update_drv [-b basedir] [-f | -v] [-n] -d [-m 'permission']
                [-i 'identify-name'] [-P 'privilege'] [-p 'policy'] driver_module
    
    
    DESCRIPTION
           The update_drv command informs the system about attribute changes to an
           installed device driver. It can be used to re-read  the  driver.conf(4)
           file, or to add, modify, or delete a driver's minor node permissions or
           aliases.
    
    
           Without options, update_drv reloads the driver.conf file.
    
    
           Upon successfully updating the aliases, the driver binding takes effect
           upon reconfig boot or hotplug of the device.
    
    
           Upon  successfully  updating the permissions, only the new driver minor
           nodes get created with the modified set of file  permissions.  Existing
           driver minor nodes do not get modified.
    
    OPTIONS
           The following options are supported:
    
           -a
    
               Add a permission, aliases, privilege or policy entry.
    
               With  the  -a  option  specified,  a permission entry (using the -m
               option), or a driver's aliases  entry  (using  the  -i  option),  a
               device  privilege (using the -P option) or a a device policy (using
               the -p option), can be added or updated. If a matching  minor  node
               permissions  entry  is encountered (having the same driver name and
               the minor node), it is replaced. If a  matching  aliases  entry  is
               encountered (having a different driver name and the same alias), an
               error is reported.
    
               The -a and -d options are mutually exclusive.
    
    
           -b basedir
    
               Installs or modifies the driver on the system with a root directory
               of   basedir   rather  than  installing  on  the  system  executing
               update_drv.
    
               Note -
    
                 The root file system of any non-global zones must not  be  refer-
                 enced with the -b option. Doing so might damage the global zone's
                 file system, might compromise the security of  the  global  zone,
                 and might damage the non-global zone's file system. See zones(5).
    
    
           -d
    
               Delete a permission, aliases, privilege or policy entry.
    
               The  -m permission, -i identify-name, -P privilege or the -p policy
               option needs to be specified with the -d option.
    
               The -d and -a options are mutually exclusive.
    
               If the entry doesn't exist update_drv returns an error.
    
    
           -f
    
               Force the system to reread the driver.conf file even if the  driver
               module cannot be unloaded. See NOTES section for details.
    
               Without   this  option,  when  removing  an  alias  for  a  driver,
               update_drv updates the binding files for the next boot, but returns
               an  error  if  one  or more devices that reference the driver-alias
               binding remains. With the -f option, update_drv does not return  an
               error if such devices remain.
    
    
           -i 'identify-name'
    
               A white-space separated list of aliases for the driver. If -a or -d
               option is not specified then this option is ignored. The  identify-
               name  string  is  mandatory.  If  all  aliases  need to be removed,
               rem_drv(1M) is recommended.
    
    
           -m 'permission'
    
               Specify a white-space separated list of file system permissions for
               the  device  node  of  the device driver. If -a or -d option is not
               specified then, this option is ignored. The  permission  string  is
               mandatory.
    
    
           -n
    
               Do not try to load and attach device_driver, just modify the system
               configuration files for that driver.
    
    
           -p 'policy'
    
               With the -a option, policy is a white-space separated list of  com-
               plete  device  policies. For the -d option, policy is a white space
               separated list of minor device  specifications.  The  minor  device
               specifications   are   matched   exactly  against  the  entries  in
               /etc/security/device_policy, that is., no wildcard matching is per-
               formed.
    
    
           -P 'privilege'
    
               With  the  -a  option, privilege is a comma separated list of addi-
               tional driver privileges. For the -d option, privilege is a  single
               privilege.  The  privileges  are  added  to  or  removed  from  the
               /etc/security/extra_privs file.
    
    
           -v
    
               Verbose.

    NOTES
           If -a or -d options are  specified,  update_drv  does  not  reread  the
           driver.conf file.
    
    
           A  forced  update  of the driver.conf file reloads the driver.conf file
           without reloading the driver binary module. In this case, devices which
           cannot  be  detached  reference  driver  global properties from the old
           driver.conf file, while the remaining driver instances reference global
           properties in the new driver.conf file.
    
    
           It  is possible to add an alias , which changes the driver binding of a
           device already being managed by a different driver. A force update with
           the  -a  option  tries to bind to the new driver and report error if it
           cannot. If you specify more than one of the -m, -i, -P or -p options, a
           force flag tries to modify aliases or permissions. This is done even if
           the other operation fails and vice-versa.
