This section discusses documentation for, and other sources of information about, HP-UX 11i v1.

HP-UX 11i v1 Resources

The following sources provide detailed information about HP-UX 11i v1:

  • HP-UX 11i v1 Instant Information CD

    The Instant Information CD provides HP-UX documentation supporting the release.

  • Manual Pages

    For the HP-UX 11i v1 release, the manual pages (manpages) are available on the HP-UX Welcome Page of your system, on the Instant Information CD in the HP-UX Reference document, through the use of the man command, and at the HP Technical Documentation Web site: http://docs.hp.com/hpux/os/11iv1#HP-UX%20Reference%20%28Manpages%29

  • HP-UX Welcome Page

    The HP-UX Welcome Page on your HP-UX 11i v1 system contains pointers to information to help you use your HP-UX system.

  • Release Notes

    The HP-UX 11i Version 1 Release Notes describes what is new, has changed, and has been deprecated or obsoleted in the current release compared to the previous HP-UX 11i v1 release.

    You can find the release notes in the following locations:

    • HP-UX Instant Information CD. See “Media Kit Contents” for more information.

    • The HP Technical Documentation Web site:

      http://docs.hp.com/

      Here you will find the release notes pertinent to all previous releases of HP-UX, as well as release notes for various individual products.

  • README (Read Before Installing) Documents

    README documents or Read Before Installing (RBI) media booklets contain information about the installation process that may not appear in this HP-UX 11i Version 1 Installation and Update Guide. Any product contained in the release may have a README document, so several README documents may be included. The Read Before Installing or Updating to HP-UX 11i Version 1 booklet is included with your media kit.

The following references assume you know how to mount a DVD on your system. Files located on mounted DVD drives are referenced as dvd_mount_point, followed by the file path on the DVD media.

NOTE: If you plan to read the HP-UX 11i v1 DVDs on an HP-UX 11i v1 system, then you need to install the PHKL_28025 patch.

The PHKL_28025 patch is in the GOLDBASE11i bundle as of June 2003, which you can find on the Support Plus media for HP-UX 11i v1 or at the IT Resource Center Web site:

http://itrc.hp.com

The PHKL_28025 patch supersedes PHKL_25760.

  • Bundle Readme Files

    Bundle readme files (in text and HTML formats) contain additional installation instructions, notes about problems in current and previous releases, a list of patches and their dependencies, and changes since the last release. You can print or view these files directly from the DVD, for example:

    more /dvd_mount_point/DOCS/PATCH/QPK1111.readme.html

  • Patch Text Files

    Patch text files for all patches are on the DVD in the /dvd_mount_point/DOCS/PATCH/TEXT_FILES directory. These files provide detailed information about the patch. Patch text files are also included with individual patches that you retrieve from HP.

    TIP: To simplify sharing of patch information, you may want to copy the documentation files onto your own system. The hyperlinks from the HTML bundle readme files to the patch text files work as long as the HTML files reside in the same directory as the TEXT_FILES subdirectory.
