Upgrades from previous SF Oracle RAC versions may fail on Solaris systems (3256400)

Last published : Sep 23, 2026
The vxio and vxdmp modules may fail to stop on Solaris systems during upgrades from previous SF Oracle RAC versions. As a result, the upgrade fails to complete successfully.
Workaround: If vxio and vxdmp fail to stop and no other issues are seen during upgrade, continue with the upgrade and restart the system when the product installer prompts. After the reboot, use the installer to start the product again by entering:
\# /opt/VRTS/install/installer -start
Note: Do not use the response file to upgrade in this situation.
