You can obtain help by reviewing context-sensitive online help, viewing specific sections in this guide, viewing or printing the online documentation, viewing electronic support information, or contacting Technical Support.
Both the DNM Browser and Cisco Service Manager include both context-sensitive online help and pointer help.
To view online help about any screen object, choose On Context from the Help menu. The cursor will change into a question mark. Position the cursor over the object on which you want information, and click. The help viewer will start and display information pertaining to that object.
Pointer help contains one-line descriptions of every screen object. It appears in a status line at the bottom of the window. Whatever object the cursor is positioned over will be described in that status line. To toggle point help on or off, select Pointer Help from the Help menu.
The CDDM CD-ROM includes online documentation in HTML and PDF formats, in the following directories:
where mount_point is the CD-ROM mount point.
where cd_drive is the CD-ROM drive letter.
During installation, the HTML and PDF (optional) files are copied to the following directories on your hard disk. On Windows systems:
where install_dir is the directory in which you installed the CDDM or CSS1000 software.
On Solaris systems:
where install_dir is the directory in which you installed the CDDM or CSS1000 software.
The HTML files are installed by default when you install CDDM or CSS1000, as they are used in the on-line help systems for those products. To preserve hard disk space, the PDF files are not installed automatically.
To view the HTML version of the online documentation on the CDDM CD-ROM, start your web browser and open the following file:
where mount_point is the CD-ROM mount point.
where cd_drive is the CD-ROM drive letter.
After you have installed the CDDM or Cisco Server Suite 1000, you can access the HTML documentation by opening the file install_dir\html\index.htm on Windows platforms and install_dir/CSCOcddm/doc/html/index.htm on UNIX platforms.
The CDDM CD-ROM includes the Netscape Navigator web browser. If you installed this browser at installation time, you can start Netscape as follows.
On UNIX hosts, issue this command:
install_dir/CSCOcddm/bin/netscape
where install_dir is the directory in which you installed the CDDM or CSS1000 software.
On Windows hosts, choose Netscape in the Programs section of the Start menu.
To view the PDF version of the online documentation on the CDDM CD-ROM, start your Adobe Acrobat Reader and navigate to the following directory:
where mount_point is the CD-ROM mount point.
where cd_drive is the CD-ROM drive letter.
Then open the following files:
After you have installed the CDDM or Cisco Server Suite 1000, you can access the PDF files in the following directories:
where install_dir is the directory in which you installed the CDDM or CSS1000 software.
Cisco documentation and additional literature are available in a CD-ROM package, which ships with your product. The Documentation CD-ROM, a member of the Cisco Connection Family, is updated monthly. Therefore, it might be more up to date than printed documentation. To order additional copies of the Documentation CD-ROM, contact your local sales representative or call customer service. The CD-ROM package is available as a single package or as an annual subscription. You can also access Cisco documentation on the World Wide Web at http://www.cisco.com, http://www-china.cisco.com, or http://www-europe.cisco.com.
