The VMS V5 impact Document can be obtained from the following account:

      FOOT::DISK$DEV004:[CAITHNESS.MIGRATION.DOC]VMSV5.*

where "*" is the document format.

There is also a seperate VMS V5 layered product list in that account,
named V5_PRODUCT_LIST.DOC (!).

When installed, the layered product release notes can be found in SYS$HELP.

213.2CMS Library ConversionCURRNT::CAITHNESSColin CAITHNESS, @UCG, 781-4335Thu Feb 09 1989 16:427
When upgrading to CMS V3 you must first verify and convert the existing
V2.3 CMS library.

For further information refer to Chapter 5 (Library Conversion) of the
CMS V3.0 Release Notes.

213.3SHAPES::ALFORDJDragon Riders do it in between...Mon Feb 13 1989 18:0010
	This isn't exactly a problem but:

	During the installation there is a message informing the 
	Installer that the Release Notes have been inserted into SYS$HELP

	This is fine, but how does one get at them in help and how do
	you delete them from SYS$HELP when de-installing the product ??

213.4Waht problemYARD::OTTENInsert witty comment hereTue Feb 14 1989 10:0613
    Depends.
    
    If it's a Help Library that's been inserted into SYS$HELP, the command
    is "HELP/LIBRARY=SYS$HELP:(libname)
    
    If it's not a .HLB, then all you can do is type or print it (Should
    be set to World Read)
    
    You shouldn't be able to delete it unless you're in a privileged
    account (?SYSPRV?) - but you need privs to install it there in the
    first place, and also to deinstall the rest of the application.
    
    No Problem

    It can also mean that a text file has been created in sys$help e.g. 
    sys$help:tdms018.release_notes . These files are world readable.
