Hi All,
We have a system running Solaris 2.6 with Veritas volume manager 3.0.4. We need to upgrade it to Solaris 8 and VVM 3.0.4 is supported in Solaris 8. I am planning to use the Live upgrade utility from Sun to do this upgrade. As per the documents it says that unencapsulate the boot disk before using the live upgrade. Apart from root disk we have a storage array with lot of disks which are under veritas control. I have few questions about this live upgrade :
1. Do I need to remove all my disk from Veritas control.
2. Do I need to remove the Veritas volume manager completely and then reinstall it again on Solaris 2.8 disk. If this is the case then what will happen to my other disk which are under veritas control
3. Do I need to reinstall softwares ( Like Autosys and Sybase) which are installed in the Solaris 2.6 on this new solaris 2.8 disk as well.
thanks
Kris
