Install the SDK Documentation

You install the SDK documentation separately from the SDK software. The documentation installation program installs the SDK documentation and documentation for the SiteMinder product. By default, SDK and SiteMinder documents are installed in the following location:

• UNIX: home_directory/ca/ca_documents
• Windows: C:\Program Files\ca\ca_documents

Note: If you have problems with links in the PDF documents, be sure you are using Adobe Reader as the viewer, not Adobe Acrobat.

On UNIX, the installation file is ca-sm-doc-12.0-sp1-platform.bin.
