1.3 Installation Documentation

In general, you install products using the VMSINSTAL or the POLYCENTER Software Installation (PCSI) utilities, as described in Chapter 3.

Each product also has its own Installation Guide, which you should consult. For products on the SPL multi-CD set, Installation Guides and other documentation are on the Online Documentation Library (ODL) CDs, which accompany the SPL. To read this documentation, you must install the Bookshelf Navigation Utility (BNU). The BNU installation procedure is explained in the ODL User's Guide (ODL_IG.PS and .TXT) in the [README] directory of the OpenVMS Alpha ODL, disc 1.

The BNU installation installs V3.03 of the Netscape Navigator web browser, which allows you to read documentation in HTML format.

Some products in the SPL are on their own CDs. The following sections explain how to access the Installation Guides for these products.

Documentation is also available on the Internet for some products, in which case the URL is provided.
