Overview

This document provides introductory information about the HP OpenVMS 
Alpha Layered Products and the HP OpenVMS Integrity/Alpha Servers 
Operating Environment Products Online Documentation Library (ODL) 
CD-ROMs.  It provides general installation and user information for 
the ODLs.

The OpenVMS Alpha ODLs consist of ISO 9660 Level 2 (ODL-ISO) 
compliant CD-ROMs that can be run from Microsoft Windows and 
HP OpenVMS platforms.

These discs contain documentation in HTML and PDF format, and use 
HTML pages as the navigation mechanism to browse to and display 
documents.  


Operating Environment and Layered Products ODL CD-ROMs

The Operating Environment ODL CD-ROM supports both the OpenVMS 
Integrity and Alpha Servers and contains documentation common to 
both platforms.  Operating System and key layered products have 
been selected for inclusion.  For OpenVMS Integrity Servers, most 
of the Operating Environment components are included.  Platform-
specific products are identified as I64 or Alpha.  

OpenVMS Alpha Layered Products not included on the Operating 
Environments ODL CD-ROM are delivered on the Layered Products ODL 
CD-ROM that is specific to the Alpha platform.
