Accessing manual pages and documentation directories

Volume Manager manual pages are in the VRTSvmman package. Veritas File System manual pages are in the VRTSfsman package. Veritas Storage Foundation for DB2 manual pages are in the VRTSdb2ed package. Manual pages are installed in the /opt/VRTS/man directories. Set the path of your MANPATH environment variable to include /opt/VRTS/man.

If you are using a shell such as sh or bash, do the following:

$ MANPATH=$MANPATH:/opt/VRTS/man; export MANPATH

If you are using a shell such as csh or tcsh, do the following:

% setenv MANPATH ${MANPATH}:/opt/VRTS/man

On a Red Hat system, also include the 1m manual page section in the list defined by your MANSECT environment variable.

If you are using a shell such as sh or bash, do the following:

$ MANSECT=$MANSECT:1m; export MANSECT

If you are using a shell such as csh or tcsh, do the following:

% setenv MANSECT ${MANSECT}:1m

Installation of the documentation packages copies PDF files into the /opt/VRTS/docs directory.


  Note   If you use the man(1) command to access manual pages, set LC_ALL=C in your shell to ensure that they display correctly.
