Upgrading CVM protocol version and VxVM disk group version

The default Cluster Volume Manager protocol version is 110.

Run the following command to verify the CVM protocol version:

# /opt/VRTS/bin/vxdctl protocolversion
If the protocol version is not 110, run the following command to upgrade the version:

# /opt/VRTS/bin/vxdctl upgrade
All Veritas Volume Manager disk groups have an associated version number. Each VxVM release supports a specific set of disk group versions and can import and perform tasks on disk groups with those versions. Some new features and tasks work only on disk groups with the current disk group version. Before you can perform the tasks, you need to upgrade existing disk group version to 170.

Check the existing disk group version:

# vxdg list dg_name|grep -i version
If the disk group version is not 170, run the following command on the master node to upgrade the version:

# vxdg -T 170 upgrade dg_name
