SCATOOL.CONF(5)

💖 NAME 💖

okay bestie, welcome to SCATOOL.CONF(5) from the Supportconfig Analysis Manual — aka the scatool.conf page. This is the Supportconfig Analysis Tool Configuration File, and it’s literally the config bestie holding the defaults. 💅

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

The scatool.conf file has default values for scatool. That’s the whole vibe: defaults live here, and scatool reads them.

✨ GLOBAL VARIABLES ✨

• REMOVE_ARCHIVE — once scatool processes the supportconfig archive, this deletes the archive, its .md5 file and the extracted directory, leaving only the HTML report file. It is disabled by default, so the original archive stays in place. Valid options: 0 = Disable remove archive mode, 1 = Enable remove archive mode. Default: 0.
• OUTPUT_PATH — the directory where the HTML report file is saved. Default: (Empty).
• OUTPUT_EMAIL_LIST — the email address(es) where HTML reports should be sent. A comma or space separated list of email addresses. Default: (Empty).
• REMOTE_SC_PATH — the remote supportconfig path where the supportconfig tar ball is temporarily saved while running on the remote server. You generally don’t want to change this path. Default: /var/log.
• SCA_LIBRARY_PATH — the base SCA Tool library path. Pattern libraries are located here. Default: /usr/lib/sca/.
• SCA_PATTERN_PATH — the base pattern directory for all patterns. Default: /usr/lib/sca/patterns/.
• BASHLIB — the Bash library location for the supportconfig pattern repository. The bash patterns scatool uses requires bash libraries located in this directory. Default: /usr/lib/sca/patterns/lib/bash.
• PERL5LIB — the Perl library location for the supportconfig pattern repository. The perl patterns scatool uses requires perl libraries located in this directory. Default: /usr/lib/sca/patterns/lib/perl.
• PYTHONPATH — the Python library location for the supportconfig pattern repository. The python patterns scatool uses requires python libraries located in this directory. Default: /usr/lib/sca/patterns/lib/python.
• LOGLEVEL — the SCA Tool log level. Valid options: LOGLEVEL_NORMAL and LOGLEVEL_VERBOSE. Default: LOGLEVEL_NORMAL.
