Thanks to the many replies.
I don't need a new license key when upgrading from Veritas Volume
Manager 3.0.4 to 3.5. But, I have to install the new licensing package
VRTSlic.
Everyone suggested I upgrade using the upgrade_start and upgrade_finish
scripts which is what I will do.
Below is my original question:
I'm currently running Veritas Volume Manager 3.0.4 on Solaris 8
> with my root disk encapsulated.
> I want to upgrade to Solaris 9 and Volume Manager 3.5.

> upgrade.

> Use the pkgadd command on top of my existing software.
