OpenVMS System Management Guide 2nd Ed is well worth reading and if you use the link on the front page of the hp vms web site you can get a discount

[Andy Bustamante]

You can follow the links from http://h71000.www7.hp.com/ to Digital Press for a 30 percent discount. If you're from the Unix world consider "Unix for OpenVMS Users" and "Linux & OpenVMS." "Writing Real Programs in DCL" should go on your list of follow ups.

The OpenVMS web site has documentation available in PDF or HTML for easy access. If you have the offical distribution, look for the documentation CD. My laptop has one of these always loaded under the "don't leave home without it" policy. It's the same docs as the web site.

I've had this (attached) on disk for some time.

Hi Ashan,
Welcome to the cool world of OpenVMS - the-best-operating-system-ever-writen!!!
If you are interested at performance issues I think you should start with the OpenVMS performance manual (provided with the OpenVMS standard documantation) and mabe read "Hitchhykers guide to VMS".
for any specific question, you may contact me at amitl5@BEzeqint.net

good luck.
