VERITAS Volume Manager 3.2 for HP-UX Release Notes

What’s in This Version

Chapter 1 11

• Modifying existing objects with commands such as vxedit, vxmend, and vxdisk takes less

time. In large configurations, operations are almost instantaneous instead of taking up to

half a minute.

• Now any system configuration can reach the maximum I/O throughput of the system

without approaching any VxVM limitations. Large numbers of parallel resynchronous

operations no longer have a significant effect on other administrative commands.
