Release Notes

Read the Release Notes for all products included with this product. Portable
Document Format (.pdf) versions of the Release Notes are included on the
software disc in the

storage_foundation_cluster_file_system/release_notes

directory

and on the documentation disc that came with your software.
Because product Release Notes are not installed by any packages, it is
recommended that you copy them from the disc to the

/opt/VRTS/docs

directory on your system so that they are available for future reference.

Product licensing

Product keys are available on the License Key certificate. The certificate also
includes the number of product licenses purchased. A single key enables product
installation on the number and the type of systems for which you purchased the
license. A key may enable the operation of more products than specified on the
certificate, but you are legally limited to the number of product licenses
purchased.
The

VRTSvlic

package executes Veritas product licensing. The following

commands and their manual pages are available on the system after

VRTSvlic

is installed:

vxlicinst

installs a license key for a Veritas product

vxlicrep

displays currently installed licenses

vxlictest

retrieves features and their descriptions encoded in a license

key

If you encounter problems while licensing your product, visit the Veritas
licensing support website at

.

Veritas products are installed under the

/opt

directory on the specified host

systems. Verify that the directory

/opt

exists and has write permissions for

root

before starting the installation procedure. Do not make

/opt

a VxFS file

system.
