The VRTSvxvm product replaces the HPvxvm product available with previous HP-UX
11i releases. It is the same product, but since HP and VERITAS have moved to a binary
model for VxVM products, VERITAS handles all the packaging and the new name
reflects this.
The HPvmsa product is no longer supported with VxVM 3.5. VERITAS has moved to a
Unified GUI (UniGUI) product for 3.5. The VRTSob, VRTSobgui, VRTSvmpro, and
VRTSfspro products are all part of the UniGUI product.
VERITAS has moved to SIG licensing for VxVM 3.5. As such, the VRTSvlic package is
required for correct functioning of VxVM.
During upgrades from previous OEUR or AR releases, the previous HPvxvm and
HPvmsa products will be replaced by the above new products. Previous ELM licensing
keys will still work with the new SIG licensing package (that is, if a customer has
installed the VxVM full product on their December 2001 system and then upgrades to
3.5, they will not need to get new license keys to get the same full functionality).
With VxVM 3.5, changes have been made to Ignite-UX to support VxVM “rootability.”

Customers can select at installation time to have their root disk managed by VxVM.
(They do not have this option with Update-UX, however.)
