Using Oracle Database Documentation
The Oracle Database products that run under BS2000/OSD are identical, in the way in
which they are supported, to the Oracle Database products that run under any other
operating system. However, because of the diversity of operating systems, the use of
applications may differ slightly between different operating systems. As a result of
this, Oracle provides two types of documentation:
This manual is written for users of Oracle Database 11g Release 2 (11.2) for
BS2000/OSD, providing them with BS2000/OSD-specific information about using
Oracle Database products. It does not describe how to use a product unless its use is
different than that described in the generic documentation. System programmers and
database administrators responsible for installing the Oracle Database, or
administering the Oracle Database, or both, should read this manual as well as the
Oracle Database Installation and Administration Guide for Fujitsu BS2000/OSD. There are
places where the information in these manuals overlap and is presented differently
depending on the target audience.
The reader is assumed to have a fundamental knowledge of BS2000/OSD. No attempt
is made to document features of BS2000/OSD except as they affect or are affected by
the Oracle Database 11g Release 2 (11.2).
