Man Pages

Reference pages describing DCE commands and calls are available online in the form of man pages.

There are two styles of man page headers:

“OSF” or “Open Software Foundation” - This header means that the man page originates from OSF and has not been changed by HP.

“HP DCE” - This header means that the man page either originates from HP or is an OSF man page that HP has changed.

HP DCE man pages are in the following directories:

/opt/dce/share/man

/opt/dce/usr/man

/usr/share/man

To read DCE man pages by using the man command, include the path names listed above in your MANPATH shell environment variable.

Use the following command to display the dts_update man page:

man dts_update
