DOCUMENTATION
For OpenVMS Version 8.2, documentation is available
in the following formats:
Printed Books
For OpenVMS Alpha, printed documentation is available
in two sets: the OpenVMS Full Documentation Set and
the OpenVMS Base Documentation Set. For OpenVMS
I64 customers, a third set is available: the OpenVMS
OE Extension Manuals.
The Full Documentation Set is for users who need
extensive explanatory information on all major Open-
VMS resources, complete reference information on sys-
tem routines and utilities, detailed examples, OpenVMS
Cluster guidelines, programming concepts, and informa-
tion on the Help Message utility. This set meets the
needs of system managers and of system and applica-
tion programmers. It includes the Base Documentation
Set.
The Base Set includes the most commonly used Open-
VMS manuals, addressing the needs of general users
and system managers of small, standalone systems.
Manuals such as the Release Notes, New Features, and
the DCL Dictionary are included in the Base Set.
The OpenVMS OE Extension Manuals contain doc-
umentation for the following products that are li-
censed with the OpenVMS I64 Operating Environ-
ments: DECnet-Plus for OpenVMS, DECprint Supervi-
sor, DECwindows Motif, DCE, and TCP/IP Services for
OpenVMS.
Online Books
For OpenVMS Version 8.2, online documentation is pro-
vided on two CD-ROMs to meet the needs of users on
multiple environments. One CD-ROM is Files-11 for-
matted for use on OpenVMS systems; the second is
ISO 9660 formatted for use on Windows and Macin-
tosh™ systems. The contents of the two CD-ROMs are
virtually identical. The ISO 9660 CD-ROM includes the
Adobe Acrobat® Reader Version 6.0 for users who want
to read PDF files on that CD-ROM.
The OpenVMS Version 8.2 Documentation CD-ROM
contains documentation for the OpenVMS operating
system, associated products for the OpenVMS Alpha
environment, and OpenVMS I64 Operating Environment
components. Wherever possible, all documents have
been provided in both HTML and PDF formats. In some
cases, however, only HTML or only PDF is provided.
Note: For OpenVMS I64, the quarterly Online Docu-
mentation Library DVD will supersede the previous On-
line Documentation media upon each quarterly release.
