Perform post-conversion tasks

After the doconvert utility performs a reboot of the system, the converted volumes and file systems are under the control of Veritas Volume Manger.

Use VxVM tools such as vxassist or the graphical user interface to improve the layout of volumes.

Remove or re-initialize the Solaris Volume Manager software for use on non-VxVM disks. After the conversion, the Solaris Volume Manager software is disabled and does not control any data. You can either remove the Solaris Volume Manager software or initialize the Solaris Volume Manager software with disks that are not used by VxVM. Both VxVM and the Solaris Volume Manager software can run on the same system.
