Title: Message
Interestingly, IBM doesn't seem to come with any decent man pages.  It's not just your SA's this time!
 
I installed every single man page package from all 5 of the 5L CD's and can get man pages for most system commands, nothing C-programming related, etc.  It's random enough that I type "man foo" and then google for "foo aix" to find the answer.  IBM has always been "different" about including online documentation.  When I started with AIXen (back in the 3.1 days) they included the InfoExplorer CD-ROM which required specific software to view it.  You couldn't just insert it into any old CD-ROM drive on another system and read it.  That's fine if you have dozens of AIXen around.  At the time, I had a single IBM server that hosted all the department's XTerms.  When it went down, there was no paper documentation -- it was all on that confounded CD-ROM that we coudn't read on a PC or Sun workstation!  :(
 
At least now they're HTMLifying it all, but they still insist on being "different" and not including nroff man pages.  *sigh*  I think that's my BIGGEST complaint about AIX ("Ain't Unix")...

We don't GET access to man pages here... they take up too much space... so does the C compiler.

As root, from other session, you can run 'slibclean' (check the man pages for more info). 
Then there is no need to rename/remove so *.so library files.
