Upgrading from Storage Foundation 3.5 on 11i v1 to Storage
Foundation 5.1 SP1 on HP-UX 11i v3
This procedure describes upgrading Storage Foundation 3.5 on HP-UX 11i v1 to
Storage Foundation 5.1 SP1 on HP-UX 11i v3. Upgrading from HP-UX 11i v1
requires an intermediate upgrade to HP-UX 11i v2 for Storage Foundation and
Storage Foundation Clustered File System.
Veritas Volume Manager 3.5 and Veritas Volume Manager 5.1 SP1 both support
disk group version 90. Therefore, any disk groups with version 90 are accessible
by Storage Foundation 5.1 SP1 after the upgrade. However, certain features in
Storage Foundation 5.1 SP1 may require the latest disk group version. Therefore,
we recommend upgrading the disk group.
To upgrade from Storage Foundation 3.5 on HP-UX 11i v1 to Storage Foundation
5.1 SP1 on HP-UX 11i v3
1
Stop activity to all Storage Foundation 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 v1 to HP-UX 11i v2 using practices recommended
by HP. HP-UX 11i v2 includes VxVM 4.1 by default. All disk groups created
using Storage Foundation 3.5 on HP-UX 11i v1 would be accessible.
