1.) Is there a way to make this work in either direction for VXFS filesystems?
2.) Are there any other filesystems that are cross compatible between 11.00 and 11.23 that are natively supported?
Thanks!
Solved! Go to Solution.

SolutionYour VxFS layout version is probably too low for 11.23 and too high for 11.0.
Have a look at the 'vxupgrade manpages; in particular the "notes" section on layout version compatibility.

Re: VXFS 11.00 vs 11.23
Alternative file systems?
NFS is still compatible between the two versions of the OS.
NFS shares on 11.00 can be mounted by 11.23 and vice versa. The speed of the transaction is going to be limited by network band width.

> What about alternative filesystems...any options there?
You really don't have any alternatives. You certainly don't want the old HFS filesystem! If you must co-exist for some period with the unsupported 11.0 software, at least upgrade the filesystem's layout thereon to the minimum version supported on 11.23. Once your 11.0 system vanishes, upgrade your layout version again so that you can move onward.

Re: VXFS 11.00 vs 11.23
Take into account the drawbacks of using HFS.
check for advantages and disadvantages of using HFS over VXFS

Re: VXFS 11.00 vs 11.23
My solution will be the old slow way of just creating new filesystems and using rsync to do the final cutover after an initial copy. Thanks again.
