4.9.3

Installing the asxman package

Installation of the

asxman

package is optional, but recommended. The package contains

UNIX manual pages for the API of Advanced Server for UNIX as well as for all Advanced
Server for UNIX commands. The manual

“API Reference”

contains the data structures and

an overview of the API functions as a supplement to this. Please refer to the manual pages
of this package for more detailed information.

Install the

asxman

package with the following steps:

Ê

Log on as system administrator

root

.

Ê

Carry out the installation procedure as described in the section

“Installing from CD-

ROM with cdinst”

.

Ê

Select the

asxman

package under

AS/X

.

The system now copies the data from the volume to

/usr/share/man/mrd/catman/asx.

4.9.4

Installing the asxdocs package

Installation of the

asxdocs

package is optional. In addition to the manuals for Advanced

Server for UNIX in PDF format, the package also contains an "Acrobat Reader" (English
language) for installation on a workstation.

Install the

asxdocs

package with the following steps:

Ê

Log on as system administrator

root

.

Ê

Carry out the installation procedure as described in the section

“Installing from CD-

ROM with cdinst”

.

Ê

Select the

asxdocs

package under

AS/X

.

Ê

During installation, specify the name of the directory where you want to install the
documentation files.

The system copies the files from the volume to the specified directory. If Advanced Server
for UNIX is already installed, a resource with the sharename

asdocs

is shared automatically.

The Acrobat Reader program (either

ar16e30.exe

for Windows 3.x or

ar32e30.exe

for

Windows 95/98 or Windows NT) which is stored in the

acrobat

directory, must be invoked

for installation on a workstation. The Acrobat Reader is then installed on the workstation
and can be used to read the PDF files.

The

asxdocs

package can be installed prior to installation of AS/X so that the documentation

can be accessed before Advanced Server for UNIX is installed. Both the Acrobat Reader
and the PDF files must then be transferred to a workstation by some other means (e.g. via
FTP).
