Where Should I Begin?
This book is organized in such a way that you need only read Chapter 3, “What is New at
a Glance,” on page 31 for a quick overview of what is new, has changed, and has been
deprecated or obsoleted in the current and previous releases of the HP-UX 11i v1
Operating Environments (OE) and Software Pack (SPK).
For further information about a particular item, you can go to the corresponding section
in the remainder of the book or, if the item pertains to a previous release, to an earlier
edition of this document.
NOTE All features and products described in this document are delivered on the OE media,
unless otherwise noted.
HP-UX system release notes can be found in the following locations:
• The HP-UX Instant Information media. See “HP-UX 11i v1 Instant Information
Media” on page 14 for more information.
• At the Web site http://docs.hp.com/en/oshpux11i.html.
Be sure to consult the version most appropriate to your release. If you are concerned
with just the initial (December 2000) release of HP-UX 11i, consult the HP-UX 11i
Release Notes. If, on the other hand, you are concerned about an update of the initial
release, then you should begin with the Release Notes version appropriate to that
release. For instance, the HP-UX 11i September 2005 Release Notes would be most
appropriate to the September 2005 update release.
For details on performing an installation, be sure to review the appropriate HP-UX 11i
Version 1 Installation and Update Guide at the above Web site.
For critical, late-breaking cold-install and update issues not in the HP-UX 11i Version 1
Installation and Update Guide, you should also review the most recent media booklet,
Read Before Installing or Updating to HP-UX 11i Version 1, which is also available at the
above Web site.
