Upgrading Storage Foundation products or the operating system

If your system is already running a previous release of a Storage Foundation (or Foundation Suite) product, this section describes how to upgrade it to Veritas Storage Foundation 5.1. The operating system must be at a supported level for this upgrade. Perform the procedures in the following sections to upgrade Storage Foundation or your operating system, or both. You can perform an upgrade to Storage Foundation using the Veritas product installer or product installation script if you already have Storage Foundation installed.

This section describes how to upgrade Veritas Storage Foundation, Veritas Storage Foundation for DB2, and Veritas Storage Foundation for Oracle.

Caution:

Make sure that supported combinations of Storage Foundation and the operating system are present on your system during the upgrades. Do not upgrade to a version of Storage Foundation that is not supported with the current operating system.
