Optional Configuration Steps
After the upgrade is complete, you can optionally perform the steps discussed in this section

HP-UX 11i v3 to VxVM 5.0.1 Using Integrated VxVM 5.0.1 Package for HPUX 11i v3” (page 63).
To perform the optional configuration steps, complete the following procedure:
1. To encapsulate and mirror the boot disk, follow the procedures in the "Administering Disks"
chapter of the Veritas Volume Manager Administrator’s Guide.
2. If you want to use the features of Storage Management for Oracle 5.0.1 for which you do
not currently have an appropriate license installed, obtain the license and run the vxlicinst
command to add the license to your system.
3. To upgrade VxFS Disk Layout versions and VxVM Disk Group versions, follow the upgrade
instructions discussed in “Upgrading VxVM Disk Group Versions” (page 74).
Upgrading to the New Repository Database for DB2 and Oracle
If you are installing or upgrading Storage Foundation for DB2 or Storage Management for Oracle,
you need to either create a new repository database or migrate your old repository database to
the new version of Storage Management for Oracle. You can use the db2ed_update or
dbed_update commands to migrate your old repository database to the new version. To use
the db2ed_update or dbed_update command, you must be the instance owner or the database
administrator.
To upgrade your repository database, complete the following steps:
1. Create and configure the new repository database:
# /opt/VRTSdbcom/bin/sfua_db_config
2. Migrate your old repository information into the new repository database.
3. If you are upgrading Storage Foundation for DB2 in a single-host environment, run the
db2ed_update command:
$ /opt/VRTS/bin/db2ed_update -D DB2DATABASE
If you are upgrading Storage Foundation for DB2 in a high availability (HA) environment,
run the db2ed_update command with the -G option:
$ /opt/VRTS/bin/db2ed_update -D DB2DATABASE -G service_group
