All you need for 6.5 is SMLHDB9(A).  All of the 8.13.1 BT patches are full
distributions.

You should already have it in the SYSLOG account that comes with 6.5 FOS.

What minimal Syslog documentation exists can be found at:

http://docs.hp.com/en/32650-90906/ape.html

Or perhaps:

http://www.bixby.org/mark/syslogix.html

But ignore the "how-to-install" stuff, since Syslog is already included in FOS.
