Veritas 5.0.1 Installation Guide HP-UX 11i v3 (5900-2464, September 2012)

Installing Veritas 5.0.1 Products
Veritas 5.0.1 products are supported with HP-UX 11i v3 March 2009 OEUR and later. If you do
not have the March 2009 OEUR, it is recommended that you upgrade the HP-UX version on your
system before installing the 5.0.1 version of the Veritas software. As the HP-UX 11i v3 March
2009 OEUR release contains the VxVM 5.0 and VxFS 5.0 products by default, you cannot directly
install the 5.0.1 products. You must upgrade the Veritas 5.0.1 products from 5.0 to 5.0.1 after
installing HP-UX 11i v3 March 2009 OEUR release.
Installing VxFS 5.0.1
VxFS 5.0.1 consists of the Base-VxFS-501 and HP OnlineJFS (B3929GB) bundles. The following
sections discuss the installation of these bundles using the HP-UX Software Distributor (SD) commands.
NOTE: You cannot install the Base-VxFS and the Base-VxVM 5.0.1 products on a system where
the Veritas 4.1 versions (for HP-UX 11i v2) of Storage Management for Oracle, HP Serviceguard
Storage Management, or HP Serviceguard Cluster File System product suites are installed. The
AVXFS and AVXVM products (included in VxFS 5.0.1 and VxVM 5.0.1, respectively) check the
installed products and the cause for an installation failure for the Veritas 5.0.1 products on such
systems. This issue is applicable only for systems that have been upgraded from HP-UX 11i v2 to
HP-UX 11i v3.
Tools such as AVXFS, AVXVM, AVXTOOLS, AFULLVXVM, and AONLINEJFS help pull in dependant
products. For example, when you select VxVM 5.0.1, these tools automatically pull in VxFS 5.0.1.
These products also address issues of mutual exclusions.
Installing Base-VxFS-501
You can install Base-VxFS-501 either in the non-interactive mode or in the interactive mode.

NOTE: If you are installing VxFS 5.0.1 in a system that contains the HP-UX Data Center Operating
Environment (DC-OE), HP-UX Virtual Server Operating Environment (VSE-OE) or HP-UX High
Availability Operating Environment (HA-OE), you must either include OnlineJFS 5.0.1 (B3929GB)
in the swinstall command line or remove OnlineJFS 5.0 (B3929FB) prior to installing VxFS
5.0.1.

Operating Environment (DC-OE), HP-UX Virtual Server Operating Environment (VSE-OE) or
HP-UX High Availability Operating Environment (HA-OE), you must either mark OnlineJFS
