NAME
cdtoc - CD-ROM table of contents file
DESCRIPTION
The table of contents file, .cdtoc, is an ASCII file that
describes the contents of a CD-ROM or other software distri-
bution media. It resides in the top-level directory of the
file system on a slice of a CD-ROM. It is independent of
file system format, that is, the file system on the slice
can be either UFS or HSFS.
Each entry in the .cdtoc file is a line that establishes the
value of a parameter in the following form:
PARAM=value
Blank lines and comments (lines preceded by a pound-sign,
``#'') are also allowed in the file. Parameters are grouped
by product, with the beginning of a product defined by a
line of the form:
PRODNAME=value
Each product is expected to consist of one or more software
packages that are stored together in a subdirectory on the
distribution media. There can be any number of products
described within the file. There is no required order in
which the parameters must be specified, except that the
parameters must be grouped by product and the PRODNAME
parameter must appear first in the list of parameters for
each product specified. Each parameter is described below.
All of the parameters are required for each product.
PRODNAME The full name of the product. This
must be unique within the .cdtoc
file and is preferably unique across
all possible products. This value
may contain white space. The length
of this value is limited to 256
ASCII characters; other restrictions
may apply (see below).
PRODVERS The version of the product. The
value can contain any combination of
letters, numbers, or other charac-
ters. This value may contain white
space. The length of this value is
limited to 256 ASCII characters;

other restrictions may apply (see
below).
PRODDIR The name of the top-level directory
containing the product. This name
should be relative to the top-level
directory of the distribution media,
for example, Solaris_2.6/Product.
The number of path components in the
name is limited only by the system's
maximum path name length, which is
1024 ASCII characters. Any single
component is limited to 256 ASCII
characters. This value cannot con-
tain white space.
The lengths of the values of PRODNAME and PRODVERS are
further constrained by the fact that the initial install
programs concatenate these values to produce the full pro-
duct name. For unbundled products the combined length of the
values of PRODNAME and PRODVERS must not exceed 256 ASCII
characters.
When you install OS services with Solstice Host Manager,
directories for diskless clients are created by constructing
names derived from a concatenation of the values of PROD-
NAME, PRODVERS, and client architecture, for example,
/export/exec/Solaris_2.x_sparc.all/usr/platform. The length
of the component containing the product name and version
must not exceed 256 ASCII characters. Thus, for products
corresponding to bundled OS releases (for example, Solaris
2.4), the values of PRODNAME and PRODVERS are effectively
restricted to lengths much less than 256.
The initial install programs use the value of the PRODDIR
macro in the .cdtoc file to indicate where packages can be
found.
EXAMPLES
Example 1: Sample of .cdtoc file.
Here is a sample .cdtoc file:
#
# .cdtoc file -- Online product family CD
#
PRODNAME=Online DiskSuite
SunOS 5.10 Last change: 14 Sept 2004 2
File Formats cdtoc(4)
PRODVERS=2.0
PRODDIR=Online_DiskSuite_2.0
#
PRODNAME=Online Backup
PRODVERS=2.0
PRODDIR=Online_Backup_2.0
This example corresponds to the following directory layout
on a CD-ROM partition:
/.cdtoc
/Online_DiskSuite_2.0
./SUNWmddr.c
./SUNWmddr.m
./SUNWmddu
/Online_Backup_2.0
./SUNWhsm
The bundled release of Solaris 2.6 includes the following
.cdtoc file:
PRODNAME=Solaris
PRODVERS=2.6
PRODDIR=Solaris_2.6/Product
This file corresponds to the following directory layout on
slice 0 of the Solaris 2.6 product CD:
/.cdtoc
/Solaris_2.6/Product
./SUNWaccr
./SUNWaccu
./SUNWadmap
.
.
.
./SUNWutool
