Configuring Online Documentation
It is not necessary to install the operating system’s online documentation onto your
system. You can access all of the documentation through the Internet at the following
Web address: http://www.ibm.com/servers/aix/library However, if you use the
Documentation Library Service to search any online documentation, it searches only the
registered documentation that is installed. It does not search the documentation at the
above Web site.
Viewing the Online Documentation from the Documentation CD
To view the online documentation, you must have an HTML browser installed on your
system. The Netscape browser is located on the AIX 5L Expansion Pack.
Installing the Online Documentation on a System
To install the online documentation, do the the following:
1. Type smitty install_latest.
2. Enter INPUT device / directory for software in the field provided and press Enter.
3. In the Install Software menu, use the F4 key to list the documentation packages and
filesets that are available to install. Select a package or fileset by highlighting the
appropriate choice and pressing the F7 key. Press Enter when you have finished
making your selections.
4. Select the appropriate responses for the remaining questions in the Install Software
menu or accept the default choices. When you have finished making your
selections, press Enter. From the confirmation menu, press Enter to install the
software.
5. Press F10 to exit the SMIT menu and return to the command line.
