Preface
HP-UX is the Hewlett-Packard Company’s implementation of a UNIX
operating system that is compatible with various industry standards. It
is based on the System V Release 4 operating system and includes
important features from the Fourth Berkeley Software Distribution.
The ten volumes of this manual contain the system reference
documentation, made up of individual entries called manpages, named
for the man command (see man (1)) that displays them on the system.
The entries are also known as manual pages or reference pages.
General
Introduction
For a general introduction to HP-UX and the structure and format of the
manpages, please see the introduction (9) manpage in volume 10.
Section
Introductions
The manpages are divided into sections that also have introduction
(intro) manpages that describe the contents. These are:
intro (1) Section 1: User Commands
(A-M in volume 1; N-Z in volume 2)
intro (1M) Section 1M: System Administration Commands
(A-M in volume 3; N-Z in volume 4)
intro (2) Section 2: System Calls
(in volume 5)
intro (3C) Section 3: Library Functions
(A-M in volume 6; N-Z in volume 7)
intro (4) Section 4: File Formats
(in volume 8)

Typographical Conventions
audit (5) An HP-UX manpage reference. For example, audit is
the name and 5is the section in the HP-UX Reference.
On the web and on the Instant Information CD or
DVD, it may be a hyperlink to the manpage itself. From
the HP-UX command line, you can enter “man audit”
or “man 5 audit” to view the manpage. See man (1).
Book Title The title of a book. On the web and on the Instant
Information CD or DVD, it may be a hyperlink to the
book itself.
Command A command name or qualified command phrase.
ComputerOutput Text displayed by the computer.
Emphasis Text that is emphasized.
Emphasis Text that is strongly emphasized.
ENVIRONVAR The name of an environment variable.
[ERRORNAME] The name of an error number, usually returned in the
errno variable.
KeyCap The name of a (usually) nonprinting keyboard key, such
as Ctrl-X or Tab. Note that Return and Enter both refer to
the same key.
Replaceable The name for a value that you replace in a command or
function, or information in a display that represents
several possible values.
Term The defined use of an important word or phrase.
UserInput Commands and other text that you type.
$User command prompt.
#Superuser (root) command prompt.

7
Command Syntax
Literal A word or character that you enter literally.
Replaceable A word or phrase that you replace with an appropriate
value.
- chars One or more grouped command options, such as -ikx.
The chars are usually a string of literal characters
that each represent a specific option. For example, the
entry -ikx is equivalent to the individual options -i,
-k, and -x. The plus character (+) is sometimes used as
an option prefix.
- word A single command option, such as -help. The word is a
literal keyword. The difference from - chars is usually
obvious and is clarified in an Options description. The
plus character (+) and the double hyphen (--) are
sometimes used as option prefixes.
[ ] The bracket metacharacters enclose optional content in
formats and command descriptions.
{ } The brace metacharacters enclose required content in
formats and command descriptions.
| The bar metacharacter separates alternatives in a list
of choices, usually in brackets or braces.
... The ellipsis metacharacter after a token ( abc ...) or a
right bracket ([ ]...) or a right brace ({ }...)
metacharacter indicates that the preceding element
and its preceding whitespace, if any, may be repeated
an arbitrary number of times.
... Ellipsis is sometimes used to indicate omitted items in
a range.

8
Function Synopsis and Syntax
HP-UX functions are described in a definition format rather than a
usage format. The definition format includes type information that is
omitted when the function call is actually included in a program.
The function syntax elements are the same as for commands, except for
the options; see “Command Syntax” on page 7.
Function General
Definition
The general definition form is:
type func ( type param [, type param ]... );
For example:
int setuname ( const char * name , size_t namelen );
Function Usage The usage form is:
func ( param [, param ]... );
For example:
setuname ( name [, namelen ]... );

Publishing History
Revisions of the HP-UX Reference are published with each initial version
release and at significant update milestones for each release. The
contents are current as of the publication dates. Since manpages are
often updated in software patches, you can find the latest version of a
manpage on an appropriately patched system, using the man command.
The list below is in reverse order of the date of publication.
