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.
