What Is the Purpose of HP-UX Release Notes?
HP-UX Release Notes describe what is new, changed, or obsolete within
an HP-UX release as compared with previous releases. HP-UX Release
Notes apply only to features that are included as part of the HP-UX
operating system or one of the four new Operating Environments.
Operating Environments are discussed later in this Chapter under
“Overview of the HP-UX 11i Release”.
Additional product-specific release notes files are located in the /opt
directory, in sub-directories named
/opt/ product_name /newconfig/RelNotes (where product_name
represents the name of the product for which those release notes apply).
For example, Distributed Computing Environment (DCE) release notes
are located in the /opt/dce/newconfig/RelNotes directory.
The purpose of HP-UX 11i Release Notes is to explain the major
differences between HP-UX 11.0 and 11i. For information on changes to
HP-UX that occurred at 11.0, consult the archival release notes located
in /usr/share/doc/11.00RelNotes or at the http://docs.hp.com
web site. For information on changes to HP-UX that occurred at 10.30 or
before, also see the docs.hp.com web site.
Release Notes do not completely document all of the features of a release.
Instead, they contain high-level information and provide pointers to
more detailed operating system and product-specific documentation.
Where appropriate, Release Notes also tell you about changes in the
support of products.
