Installing HP FTAM/9000

Installation Overview

The menu labels include indicators. An arrow indicator (->) indicates a branch to another menu. A series of dots (...) indicates that there is an associated form for the menu item.

On the form screens, you will see fields that display default parameters that you can modify by entering new parameters. Some of these fields may scroll vertically, indicated by a row of down arrows (V) or a row of up arrows (ˆ). The fields may also scroll horizontally, which is indicated by a greater-than symbol (>) or a less-than symbol (<). The scroll function is executed with the arrow keys.

Function Keys

The f1 through f8 keys are multiple-function keys that can be used for a variety of functions depending on the program and menu combination. The three main function keys are the following:

f8, which is used to exit a screen or to move back through previous menus

f4, which is used to select items and perform tasks

f1, which is used to access the HELP function

The HELP Function

The HELP function, which you access by pressing f1, provides information about menu items and fields. It describes the parameters that you need to add to the configuration menus and indicates possible responses that you can use in the fields of a form screen.
