Example of Using syncwpar to Propagate Package Removal From Shared WPARs

The syncwpar command synchronizes all packages between the AIX global environment and shared workload partitions (WPARs). This section shows an example of how to use the syncwpar command to propagate removal of AIX global environment packages from shared WPARs. WPARs are a feature that exists only in AIX v6.1 and higher.

When syncwpar is run and an Endpoint Privilege Management configuration package is removed, the following message may display:

"inulag: The file system has read permission only."

This message can be ignored.

# syncwpar wpar01
*****************************************************************************
**
Synchronizing workload partition wpar01 (1 of 1).
*****************************************************************************
**
Executing /usr/sbin/syncroot in workload partition wpar01. syncroot: Processing root part installation status. syncroot: Synchronizing installp software.
