On the system I am using (and I won't mention which doctor is in
charge), the IBM Navigator for i help facilities seem worthless. Three
examples:
1. The "About console" link points the Knowledge Center, which only
seems to repeat the 2-page "manual" that lists the most recent global
changes.
2. Clicking *?* to display help about the currently displayed task
gives me a new - but blank - window. I tried Chrome and Firefox.
3. The*Help* function displays what appears to be the 6.1 manual,
although I am on a 7.2 system.
Is the problem me, my system administrator, or IBM?
Also, I cannot find a way to change my own password. The "Change
Password" task seems to be an API that runs a subset of CHGUSRPRF, but
it will not let me change the password of an active user. Now there's a
Catch 22!
I am writing a course for entry-level operators and really don't want to
tell them that everything that appears to be help is left over from
previous releases and is no longer useful. I don't want to, but I will
if that is the case.
