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 Oracle Database User's Guide for Fujitsu BS2000/OSD.
