Also, you can get the patches from Hewlett-Packard’s Patch Database offered under the

Maintenance and Support section of the HP Services & Support - IT Resource Center. HP’s

Patch Database provides fast, accurate searches for the latest recommended and

superseded patches available for VERITAS File System or VERITAS Volume Manager.

Setting PATH and MANPATH Environment Variables

The software and online manual pages for the packages comprising SFCFS/SFCFS HA

are installed in several different directories. However, there are symbolic links to all

commands in the /opt/VRTS/bin directory, and symbolic links to all manual pages in

/opt/VRTS/man. To make all SFCFS/SFCFS HA commands and manual pages

accessible when you do the installation, add /opt/VRTS/bin to your PATH and

/opt/VRTS/man to your MANPATH environment variables. Command line examples in

this guide assume these environment variables are set.
