All of the directories listed above may not appear on this CD-ROM since all language directories are not available on all CD-ROMs. 3. Not all DB2 books that are viewable from this CD-ROM are translated into all the supported languages. If a particular book is translated into a particular language, then it is in the language directory specific to that language. This means, for example, that the English language books are in the \doc\en directory on Windows and OS/2, and in the /doc/en directory on UNIX, whereas the French books are in the \doc\fr directory on Windows and OS/2, and in the /doc/fr directory on UNIX.

Refer to the installation notes on this CD-ROM for last minute installation updates. Installing NetQuestion on UNIX NetQuestion is only installed automatically if installation of DB2 is done through the DB2 installer (db2setup). If DB2 is installed manually, NetQuestion must also be installed manually. To install NetQuestion on AIX, use SMIT or installp and select the IMNSearch.rte.SBCS, IMNSearch.rte.DBCS, and IMNSearch.rte.httplite filesets.

The HTML files are stored in one of the following directories: On Windows and OS/2: x:\doc\\ On UNIX: /cdrom/doc// where is the two-character country code that represents the language (for example, en for English). See the CD-ROM Directory Structure section for a list of two-character language codes. Viewing HTML Files You can view the online books with any browser that conforms to HTML Version 3.2 specifications. The doc directory contains a subdirectory for each book.
