Installation utility options

The xlc_install utility provides the following options:

-h
Displays the installation utility help page.
-rpmloc rpmlocation_path
Explicitly specifies the path where all XL C/C++ V8.0 packages are located. The default rpmlocation_path is ./hostOS/rpms, which is relative to the path of the installation tool. Therefore, the default rpmlocation_path is one of the following:
Note:
For most customers, the -rpmloc rpmlocation_path option is not required in the installation invocation. If the utility is used directly from the CD or electronic image, it will automatically determine the source location of the packages.
-U
Updates XL C/C++ to the v.r.m-f level that the installation utility version supports. For example, using the -U option in the xlc_install, utility that is provided in the 8.0.0-1 update, will update the compiler to XL C/C++ V8.0.0-1, XL SMP V1.6.0-1, and XL MASS V4.3.0-1 when you already have XL C/C++ V8.0.0-0, XL SMP V1.6.0-0, and XL MASS V4.3.0-0 installed.
-v
Displays debugging information.
-vv
Displays more detailed debugging information.
