Creating Checkpoints: vxckptadm vs. fsckptadm

Aside from vxckptadm being setuid and the argument list being different, is there anything inherently different with filesystem checkpoints created using vxckptadm vs. fsckptadm?

I wonder because I am creating my own (simpler) oracle backup scripts. I looked through sfrac_ckptadm scripts and the only question I have about it is what is the underlying difference between vxckptadm and fsckptadm. I assume they are the same and make the same calls under the hood (they have a slightly different interface).

Anyone know if there is anything "special" about a checkpoint created with vxckptadm vs. fsckptadm?
