The HP-UX 11i Release Notes describes what is new, has changed, or has become

obsolete with HP-UX 11i version 1 since the initial release of HP-UX 11.0. It applies only

to features that are included in the HP-UX operating system or one of the five Operating

Environments (discussed in Chapter 3, “HP-UX 11i Version 1 Release Overview,” on

page 53).

The HP-UX 11i Release Notes describes these changes made to HP-UX:

• Changes introduced after the initial release of HP-UX 11.0 as part of Extension

Packs and/or ACE releases. (These changes were subsequently incorporated into

HP-UX 11i v1.)

• Changes introduced at the initial release of HP-UX 11i v1.

• Changes introduced subsequent to the initial release of HP-UX 11i v1.

This book is organized in such a way that you need only read Chapter 2, “What’s New at

a Glance,” on page 23 for a quick overview of what is new, has changed, and has been

deprecated or obsoleted in the current and previous releases of HP-UX 11i v1. For

further information about a particular item, you can go to the appropriate section in the

remainder of the book.

HP-UX 11i v1 system release notes can be found in the following locations:

• The HP-UX Instant Information media.

The system release notes for the initial release (December 2000) of HP-UX 11i v1 can
