To Upgrade from VxVM 3.5 on HP-UX 11i v2 to VxVM 5.1 SP1 on HP-UX 11i v3

To upgrade from VxVM 3.5 on HP-UX 11i v2 to VxVM 5.1 SP1 on HP-UX 11i v3, complete the following steps:

1.Stop activity to all VxVM volumes. For example, stop any applications such as databases that access the volumes, and unmount any file systems that have been created on the volumes.

2.Upgrade from HP-UX 11i v2 to HP-UX 11i v3. For more information on upgrading to HP-UX

11i v3, see the HP-UX 11i v3 Installation and Update Guide. To locate this document, go to the HP-UX Core docs page at: www.hp.com/go/hpux-core-docs. On this page, select HP-UX 11i v3.

3.If patches to VxVM 5.1 SP1 on HP-UX 11i v3 are required, the patches must be applied prior to upgrading the product.

4.Install the VxVM 5.1 SP1 package.

# swinstall –x autoreboot=true -s <depot_path> Base-VxVM-51

Upon successful completion of the upgrade, VxVM 5.0 will be replaced by VxVM 5.1 SP1. Disk groups created in VxVM 3.5 on HP-UX 11i v2 are accessible after the upgrade to VxVM 5.1 SP1.

Upgrading from VxVM 4.1 on HP-UX 11i v2 to VxVM 5.1 SP1 on HP-UX 11i v3

Following are some of the guidelines that you must consider prior to upgrading from VxVM 4.1 on HP-UX 11i v2 to VxVM 5.1 SP1 on HP-UX 11i v3:

•Disk group version 120 is the default disk group version for VxVM 4.1, whereas disk group version 140 is the default disk group version for VxVM 5.1 SP1.

•All disk group versions supported by VxVM 4.1 (90, 110, and 120) are also supported by VxVM 5.1 SP1. Consequently, all the disk groups created using VxVM 4.1 can be imported after upgrading to VxVM 5.1 SP1. Some new features and tasks work only on disk groups with the current disk group versions. To use new features, the disk group versions need to be upgraded.

•VxVM 5.1 SP1 on HP-UX 11i v3 supports shared disk groups only on disk group version 140. VxVM 4.1 on HP-UX 11i v3 does not support shared disk groups.
