Patch ID: Hotfix_6_0_10001_308_3061942

* 3061942 (Tracking ID: 3061941)

SYMPTOM:
Two issues related to storage migration of a volume with SmartMove enabled

DESCRIPTION:
In some cases, the following two issues are observed when storage migration is performed for a volume (with 
operations, such as subdisk move, mirror resync, mirror attach, etc.) and SmartMove is enabled:
1. If the VCS MountV resource for the volume is brought offline, then the migration task completes abnormally and the 
volume may report data corruption.
2. If the data migration is performed for a volume of size 2 TB or greater, then the task never reaches 100% completion 
because of integer overflow while handling large offsets.

RESOLUTION:
The two issues mentioned above have been fixed. The first has been fixed by adding correct handling of error 
conditions so that the task is aborted if the volume is taken offline. The second issue has been fixed by using a 64-bit 
variable for that purpose.


File Name / Version:
vxconfig.dll / 6.0.10001.308

To install the hotfix using the GUI
-----------------------------------
1. Double click the hotfix executable file to extract the contents to a default location on the cluster node.
The files are extracted to:
"%programfiles(x86)%\Common Files\Veritas Shared\WxRTPrivates"

The Hotfix Installer Wizard is automatically launched after the files are extracted.

2. Click "Next" on the Welcome screen.
