Introduction
This README describes the new features in Neoview Release 2.4 Service Pack 2 (SP2) of the HP
Neoview Data Warehousing Platform for Business Intelligence. The README also mentions
where to download client software and where to find documentation. Your HP representative
can help you determine the release level of software currently installed on your Neoview platform.
Where to Download Client Software
Client software, which enables you to connect to and manage the Neoview platform, can be
downloaded from the HP Software Depot:
www.software.hp.com
To locate the Neoview client software in HP Software Depot, either:
• Type Neoview in the search field, and press Enter.
• In the Featured Products section of the same Web page, click the HP Neoview Platform
link.
To use the client software introduced in this release or to take advantage of new features and
fixes, you must download and install the latest client software. The Software Depot pages provide
a brief description of each client software product and provide access to installation requirements
and instructions in the README file of each client product.
TIP: You can now download the Windows client software all at once using a new single installer
interface called the HP Neoview Windows Client Package. For more information, see “Neoview
Client Software Installation” (page 10).
