Summary: Veritas problem after upgrade from 2.6 to 2.8

Thanks to all who replied ,but i ran into problems with scripts provided by 
veritas.

Replies were like
1) Apply all vxvm patches
2) reinstall vxvm
3) try manually starting the vx

I did run upgrade_start
Upgraded from 2.6 to 2.8
but upgrade_finish didn't work for me.

I tried to reinstall the vxvm vxinstall used simply exit with out doing any 
thing.
finally i removed all the vx related pkgs and rebooted the server , 
installed vxvm afresh thi time vxinstall worked as expected .
I encapsulated all the disks .

rebooted the server , and had manually mount the /cvsroot vx slice.
I got back all the data intact.

What i  didn't understand here is where does the partition information of 
vx gets stored for me even after removing vx i got all the slice intact.

Time to explore many more things in vxvm.

Hello Managers,

We upgraded a 2.6 box connected with A5200 Disk array to 2.8.
Procedure fallowed was
1) Run upgrade_start
2) Jumpstart with upgrade profile
3) Apply veritas vxvm patches
4) Run upgrde_finish ( both were done in single user mode).

problem is first time upgrade_finish didn't do any thing , later now it 
asks for a license ( i never applied any license for a5200) .

Not all the disks are showing up as /dev/dsk/ not as vx disks.
i don't see my 100 Gb cvs slice in the host.

Do i need to install vol manager again ?
I will summarize.

Raghu
