customize_eac_bff Command—Customize a bff Native Package File

The customize_eac_bff command runs the CA ControlMinder native package customization script for bff native package files.

The script works on any of the available CA ControlMinder native packages for AIX. To customize a package, the package must be in a read/write directory on your file system.

Important! The location where you extract the package to should have enough space to contain at least twice the size of the package for intermediate repackaging results.

Note: For localized script messages, you need to have pre.tar file in the same directory as the script file.

This command has the following format:

customize_eac_bff -h [-l lang]
customize_eac_bff -a [-d pkg_location] pkg_name
customize_eac_bff -w keyword [-d pkg_location] pkg_name
customize_eac_bff -r [-d pkg_location] [-l lang] pkg_name
customize_eac_bff -i install_loc [-d pkg_location] pkg_name
customize_eac_bff -s {-f tmp_params | -c certfile | -k keyfile} [-d pkg_location] pkg_name
customize_eac_bff -g [-f tmp_params] [-d pkg_location] pkg_name
customize_eac_bff -t temp_dir [-d pkg_location] [pkg_name]

pkg_name

The name of the CA ControlMinder package (bff file) you want to customize.

-a

Displays the license agreement.

-c certfile

Defines the full pathname of the root certificate file.

Note: This option is applicable to the CAeAC package only.

‑d pkg_location

(Optional) Specifies the directory where you placed your package on the file system. If you do not specify a directory where the package is located, the script defaults to /var/spool/pkg.

-f tmp_params

Specifies the full path and name of the installation parameters file to create or retrieve information from.

Note: If you do not specify a file when using the -g option, the installation parameters are directed to the standard output (stdout).

-g

Gets the installation parameters file and places it in the file specified by the -f option.

-h

Displays command usage. When used in conjunction with the -l option, displays the language code for supported languages.

-i install_loc

Sets the installation directory for the package to install_loc/AccessControl.

-k keyfile

Defines the full pathname of the root private key file.

Note: This option is applicable to the CAeAC package only.

-l lang

Sets the language of the installation parameters file to lang. You can set the language only in conjunction with the -r option.

Note: For a list of supported language codes you can specify, run -l with the -h option. By default, the installation parameters file is in English.

-r

Resets the package to use default values as in the original package.

-s

Sets the specified package to use inputs from the customized installation parameters file specified by the -f option.

-t tmp_dir

Sets the temporary directory for installation operations.

Note: The default temporary directory is /tmp.

-w keyword

Defines the keyword that specifies that you accept the license agreement. You can find this keyword at the end of the license agreement (inside square brackets). To locate the license agreement file, use the -a option.
