HP Tru64 UNIX Release Notes for Version 5.1B-5 (AA-RVGEE-TE, March 2009)

• Tru64 UNIX Version 5.1B Documentation Library CD
This disk contains the documents that provide information for general users,
system administrators, and programmers using the Tru64 UNIX system. If the
Version 5.1B documentation set is already installed, do not install the software on
this CD.
The Version 5.1B-5 CD installs all reference pages that have been updated since
the Version 5.1B release if the reference page subset is installed on your system.
The Patch Summary and Release Notes document included on the Version 5.1B-5 CD
lists the reference pages that have been revised for this release and in previous
Version 5.1B updates.
• New Hardware Delivery-7 (NHD-7)
This disk enables support for new hardware as described in the release notes
included on the NHD-7 CD. Because the hardware support included in the NHD-7
kit has not changed since its initial release, you do not have to install the kit
included with Version 5.1B-5 if you previously installed NHD-7. See the discussion
on installing NHD-7 in “Installing the Software” (page 20) for additional
information.
2.2 Installing the Software
The procedure you use to install the components of your kit depends on the current
state of your system. The following list can get you started with the most common
installation procedures:
• Installing on new, updated, or pre-installed operating systems
If this is a new or update (from a pre-Version 5.1B system) installation, or an
installation that was preinstalled (called factory installed systems, or FIS), begin
by reviewing the Tru64 UNIX Installation Guide . See Section 1.2 for FIS systems
and Section 1.3 to determine the type of installation that best meets your needs.
To access the Installation Guide, install the Tru64 UNIX Documentation Library.
The Installation Guide is included with the documentation set's System and Network
Management Documentation library.
• Installing on a cluster
If you are installing on a cluster, start with Section 1.4 of the Version 5.1B Installation
Guide for guidance in obtaining the information you need.
• Installing Version 5.1B-5
If you are updating your Version 5.1B system to Version 5.1B-5 and do not need
to install the features provided on the New Hardware Delivery 7 CD, see “Accessing
the Version 5.1B-5 CD” (page 21).
