inetconv(1M) System Administration Commands inetconv(1M)NAMEinetconv - convert inetd.conf entries into smf service manifests,
import them into smf repository
SYNOPSISinetconv -?
inetconv [-f] [-n] [-i srcfile] [-o destdir]
inetconv-e [-n] [-i srcfile]
DESCRIPTION
The inetconv utility converts a file containing records of
inetd.conf(4) into smf(5) service manifests, and then import those man‐
ifests into the smf repository. Once the inetd.conf file has been con‐
verted, the only way to change aspects of an inet service is to use the
inetadm(1M) utility.
There is a one-to-one correspondence between a service line in the
input file and the manifest generated. By default, the manifests are
named using the following template:
<svcname>-<proto>.xml
The <svcname> token is replaced by the service's name and the <proto>
token by the service's protocol. Any slash (/) characters that exist in
the source line for the service name or protocol are replaced with
underscores (_).
The service line is recorded as a property of the converted service.
During the conversion process, if a service line is found to be mal‐
formed or to be for an internal inetd service, no manifest is generated
and that service line is skipped.
The input file is left untouched by the conversion process.
OPTIONS
The following options are supported:
-?
Display a usage message.
-e
Enable smf services which are listed in the input file.
-f
If a service manifest of the same name as the one to be generated
is found in the destination directory, inetconv will overwrite that
manifest if this option is specified. Otherwise, an error message
is generated and the conversion of that service is not performed.
-i srcfile
Permits the specification of an alternate input file srcfile. If
this option is not specified, then the inetd.conf(4) file is used
as input.
-n
Turns off the auto-import of the manifests generated during the
conversion process. Later, if you want to import a generated mani‐
fest into the smf(5) repository, you can do so through the use of
the svccfg(1M) utility.
If the -e option is specified, the -n option only displays the smf
services that would be enabled.
-o
Permits the specification of an alternate destination directory
destdir for the generated manifests. If this option is not speci‐
fied, then the manifests are placed in /var/svc/manifest/net‐
work/rpc, if the service is a RPC service, or /var/svc/mani‐
fest/network otherwise.
EXAMPLES
Example 1: Generating smf Manifests from inetd.conf
The following command generates smf(5) manifests from inetd.conf(4) and
places them in /var/tmp, overwriting any preexisting manifests of the
same name, and then imports them into the smf repository.
# inetconv-f -o /var/tmp
100232/10 -> /var/tmp/100232_10-rpc_udp.xml
Importing 100232_10-rpc_udp.xml ...Done
telnet -> /var/tmp/telnet-tcp6.xml
Importing telnet-tcp6.xml ...Done
Example 2: Generating Manifests from an Alternate Input File
The following command specifies a different input file and does not
load the resulting manifests into the smf repository.
# inetconv-n -i /export/test/inet.svcs -o /var/tmp
100232/10 -> /var/tmp/100232_10-rpc_udp.xml
telnet -> /var/tmp/telnet-tcp6.xml
EXIT STATUS
The following exit values are returned:
0
Operation completed successfully (no errors).
1
Invalid options specified.
2
One or more service lines are malformed, and thus no manifest(s)
were generated for them.
3
An error occurred importing one or more of the generated manifests.
4
A system error occurred.
FILES
/var/svc/manifest/network/{rpc}/<svcname>-<proto>.xml
