The little man in AIX, you can see him in smit if you have a LFT or GUI interface, jots down your command on a piece of paper, then he goes to the library (/lib directories) and looks up what to do for your command, you can see what he is looking up in the manual pages.
When he has found what you want him to do he then looks up where he needs to go next, you will not see this in the manual pages because it is secret.
He might go and get some data from a disk, or he might ask one of his special little friends to call up another system over the network.
It all depends on what commands you use really.

INTRO(8) BSD System Manager's Manual INTRO(8)
NAME
intro -- introduction to system maintenance procedures and commands
DESCRIPTION
This section contains information related to system operation and maintenance.
It describes commands used to create new file systems (newfs(8)), verify the integrity of the file systems (fsck(8)), control disk usage
(edquota(8)), maintain system backups (dump(8)), and recover files when disks die an untimely death (restore(8)). Network related services
like inetd(8) and ftpd(8) are also described.
All commands set an exit status. Its value may be tested to see if the command completed normally. Unless otherwise noted (rare), the value
0 signifies successful completion of the command, while a value >0 indicates an error. Some commands attempt to describe the nature of the
failure by using error codes defined in sysexits(3), or set the status to arbitrary values >0 (typically 1), but many such values are not
described in the manual.
A number of pages in this section describe general system management topics.
For example, the boot(8) manual page describes the system bootstrapping procedures, and the diskless(8) manual page describes how to boot a
system over a network. The crash(8) manual page should be consulted to understand how to interpret system crash dumps.
HISTORY
The intro section manual page appeared in 4.2BSD.
