reinstall

[John B Goode]

How do I change the reinstall option to TRUE?

NOTE: The bundle "B8342AA,r=B.11.11.48.01" is already installed. If
you wish to reinstall this bundle, change the "reinstall"
option to "true".

-x reinstall=true

on your swinstall, use -x reinstall_files=true, or filesets. You can change this from the gui with options/change ooptions.

swinstall -x reinstall==true -s "s,s,s,s,"

Hi,

The easiest way is to work with SAM. Choose for the Options menu and there you will find the entry you were looking for.

Hi John,

If you are installing using the swinstall interactive window, you can change this option under the option submenu on the top bar. From a command line you can use -x reinstall=true with the swinstall command. Use "man swinstall" more more detaila and options with the swinstall command.

Hope this helps.

Just a reminder - when you do this make sure you are not "reinstalling" over something that has already been patched or upgraded. I know there is normally a red flag that comes up when we talk about reinstallation unless we're sure each fileset has not already been written over by something newer.
