Hyperic HQ Documentation Overview

At Hyperic, we believe that the key to our success is your success. That's why we invest heavily in documentation. We have several sources of documentation from our formal online documentation on our wiki to a number of formatted whitepapers such as the ever useful Test Ride Guide (newly updated for the HQ 3.1 release), and HOWTOs.

Hyperic is a big product and systems management is an ever increasingly complex discipline which is why we've made our wiki commentable to anyone who has something to add. We also opened up our HyperFORGE for users to share their best practices and HOWTOs with each other.

We'll keep adding to our docs as our commitment to you - and we encourage you to add to them as well. Who knows - if you contribute something really note-worthy, you may win $250 in the Plugin-of-the-Month contest!
