LU is managed by HDLM is updated, and applied in the system when the

reconfiguration option is specified to restart the host.
When the -u parameter is specified, the entry is not added or deleted

even though the system configuration is changed (such as by adding or

deleting LUs). If the attribute value that specifies whether or not the LU is

managed by HDLM is not changed when the dlmsetconf utility is

executed with the -u parameter specified, the HDLM driver configuration

definition file (/kernel/drv/dlmfdrv.conf) is not updated. If the HDLM

driver unconfiguration definition file (/opt/DynamicLinkManager/config/
dlmfdrv.unconf) contains an invalid entry or does not exist, an error

occurs.

-t

Specify this parameter to inherit the device-name properties (logical

device names) in the existing dlmfdrv.conf as the device-name

properties (logical device names) of the logical units in the destination

storage system. This will retain the current HDLM logical device names

after migration.

If the -t parameter is specified when the storage-system-migration

definition file (/opt/DynamicLinkManager/config/dlmmiginfo.conf) has

not been used:

The logical device name for an LU is inherited only when the host LUN

in the existing dlmfdrv.conf and the host LUN of the destination

storage system are the same. Note, however, that the logical device

name inheritance system is not supported if the host LUNs of the

source or destination storage system are not unique.

If the -t parameter is specified when the storage-system-migration

definition file (/opt/DynamicLinkManager/config/dlmmiginfo.conf) has

been used:

The utility compares the storage system and LU information of the

source and destination storage systems in the storage-system-

migration definition file against the existing dlmfdrv.conf and

storage system information of the destination storage system. The

utility then inherits only the logical device names of the matched LUs.

Examples

Example 1

Parameters are omitted:

A configuration definition file is created in the /kernel/drv directory. If

the configuration definition file already exists, the existing definition

information is inherited, and the parts for the changed configuration are

added and/or deleted.

# /opt/DynamicLinkManager/bin/dlmsetconf
