Hi Panks,

Do you see any license files populated in /etc/vx/licenses/lic directory in your case ?

Also what version of HP & Veritas you are using ?

Have you tried following:

# vxdctl license init
# vxdctl listsupport

Regards

HP-UX 11.23?
Online JFS not Veritas Volume manager(VxVM)?

#swlist -l product|egrep -i "veritas|vxfs|online"

Looks like you onlinejfs version lower to B.11.23.0512

Looks to me it says what it says. NO valid licence.

1) did you purchase OnlineJFS ?
2) did you purchase Veritas' standalone version ?

vxfs exists by default as a basic filesystem included with HPUX. The administration utils need to be purchased separately.

as mentioned.
