bundles. A summary of all products delivered in each bundle is available in Table 4: “Products,
Features, and Associated Bundles”.
NOTE:
• This version is functionally identical to A.04.00. It contains the packaging fix that resolves an
issue in the VRTSvxvm pre-install script due to which DRD clone does not boot when an upgrade
is made from earlier bundles.
• In the SG SMS Version A.04.00 release, cross bundle upgrades were not supported. SG SMS
Version A.04.00.01 release supports the recommended paths to upgrade from your existing
bundles to bundle 4 or bundle 7. If you are already using bundle 4 or bundle 7, there is no
impact. For example, in SG SMS Version A.04.00 release, upgrading from bundle T2771DB
to bundle T2774EB was not possible. This is enabled in SG SMS Version A.04.00.01 release.
NOTE: For more information on recommended paths, see Table 6 (page 22).
