Hello,

The document for upgrading VCS
http://ftp.support.veritas.com/pub/support/products/Storage_Foundation_for_Windows/277576.pdf
 indicates in it's prerequisite matrix that v2.2 is the least version that
an upgrade can be performed.

The version we are running in a two-node cluster is VCS 2.0.1 .

I am hoping for the best here, is an upgrade to 4.3 possible from 2.0.1 or
are we looking at a complete reinstall?

Also, what is the minimum version of VxVM that is supported by 4.3?
Currently we are running VxVM 5.31.45.8 for W2k, The VEA version is
3.0.2.275 .

We are experiencing near daily failure of the oradg volumes falling
offline.  We are connected to an HP-XP1024 SAN running DMP on Emulex HBAs
w/ current drivers. Our SAN and associated switches show no failures at
that level.  I can only suspect that the versions of Veritas we are running
are too buggy for this level of HW.

Any insight and advice here is greatly appreciated.

Regards,

Rob Toma
