AIX Version 4.3 Differences Guide

port address, you have to use the same address for all your documentation
clients.
9.2 Installing Online Manuals
You can either install the documentation information onto the hard disk or mount
the documentation CD in the CD-ROM drive. Mounting the CD will save some
amount of hard disk space, but it requires the CD to be kept in the CD-ROM drive
at all times. Also, searching the documentation from the CD-ROM drive can be
significantly slower (in some cases up to 10 times slower) than searching the
information if it is installed on a hard disk. In addition, there are two
documentation CDs:
• The AIX Version 4.3 Base Documentation CD
• The AIX Version 4.3 Extended Documentation CD
Use smit install_latest to install the on-line manuals onto the hard disk. The
fileset bos.docregister is a prerequisite for all on-line manuals. It will be
automatically installed the first time you install any on-line manuals even if you
have not selected this fileset.
Note
The installation images located on the AIX Version 4.3 Base Documentation
and Extended Documentation CDs do not contain the HTML files. These files
exist separately on the CD to allow access from non-AIX platforms. Installing
the images from the CD will work correctly; however copying the installation
images by themselves to another location is not enough for a proper install.
9.3 Invoking Documentation Search Service
You must logout and login again after the Documentation Search Service has
been configured so that you will pick up the environment variables set up during
the configuration.
If you are running the CDE desktop environment, double-click the Documentation
Search Service icon in the Application Manager window.
Alternatively, you can use the command docsearch to invoke the documentation
search service. Netscape will start and you should see the Documentation
Search Service page.
You can invoke the Documentation Search Service without installing the
docsearch client component. In fact, you do not even need to invoke the
documentation search service from an AIX machine. You can do this by first
invoking the browser and enter the following URL:
http://[:]/cgi-bin/ds_form
This URL points to a global search form on the document server where the name
of the remote server given in server_name. The port_number only needs to be
entered if the port is different from 80.
