Set Up VxVM

To use HDLM and VxVM on the same host, set up VxVM as follows:

1

.

Make sure that the logical device file under the /dev/dsk and /dev/rdsk

directories is backed up.
If the information is not backed up, perform step 4 in

Performing

Operations on Devices to Be Managed by HDLM on page 3-45

in

Preparations for a New Installation of HDLM on page 3-45

.

2

.

If a created disk group already contains a device that is to be managed by

HDLM, deport the disk group.
For details, refer to the VxVM documentation. You can use the disk group

again by importing the deported disk group after installing HDLM.

.

When used with the Thunder 9500V Series, Lightning 9900V Series,

Hitachi USP series, Hitachi AMS2000/AMS/WMS/SMS Series, XP512,

XP48, Universal Storage Platform V/VM series, or Virtual Storage Platform

series install the Array Support Library of VxVM before installing HDLM.
For details, see the storage system manual.

After installing VxVM, confirm that no disk group containing sd or ssd

devices to be managed by HDLM has been registered in bootdg.
If the disk group containing the sd or ssd device to be managed by HDLM

has been registered in bootdg, perform one of the following:

¢

Use a VxVM command to remove the HDLM-managed sd or ssd device

from the disk group.

Remove the target disk group from the bootdg registration

For details, refer to the VxVM documentation.

.

Remove any sd or ssd disk to be managed by HDLM from VxVM control.
For details on how to remove any such sd or ssd device from VxVM

control, refer to the VxVM documentation. If HDLM has been installed,

remove any such sd or ssd device from VxVM control as directed in

Removing Devices from VxVM on page 3-154

.

Set Up SDS and SVM

When SDS or SVM uses the sd or ssd device to be managed by HDLM, clear

the device settings. For details, refer to the SDS or SVM documentation.

If you plan to use a SDS or SVM shared diskset, make sure that the hardware

configurations of all the hosts are identical (host type; HBA type, number,

slots; the number of paths and the HUBs and switches through which each

path passes; and the storage ports and LUN used by each LU).

Set Up Sun Cluster

If you are using Sun Cluster, before installing HDLM, perform the following

operations to release the device group and Quorum device settings.
