3. Creating an HDLM Environment

108

When only the license key has been provided

Create the

/var/DLM

directory, and then, in this directory, create the license

key file (

dlm.lic_key

). The following shows an example when the license

key is

123456789ABCDEF

:

# mkdir /var/DLM

# echo "123456789ABCDEF" > /var/DLM/dlm.lic_key

When the license key file has been provided

Store the license key file directly under the

/var/tmp/

directory by using

the

hdlm_license

name.

/var/tmp/hdlm_license

Note that the

hdlm_license

and

dlm.lic_key

files are deleted after

installation finishes successfully.

9.

Insert the HDLM DVD-ROM into the DVD-ROM drive.
If you install HDLM by using a directory to which the DVD-ROM is copied, you

do not have to perform this step.

10. For an upgrade installation, execute the following command:

When installing HDLM from the DVD-ROM

# /

directory-in-which-the-DVD-ROM-is-mounted

/installux.sh

or

# installp -aXgd

/directory-in-which-the-DVD-ROM-is-mounted

/

HDLM_AIX all

When installing HDLM from the directory to which the DVD-ROM was

copied

# /

directory-copied-from-DVD-ROM

/installux.sh

or

# installp -aXgd /

directory-copied-from-DVD-ROM

/HDLM_AIX all

Even though a message asking you to restart the host is displayed during

installation, you do not have to restart the host.
If you execute the

dlmrmdev

utility without the

-e

parameter specified at step 6

and then the

KAPL09172-E

message is displayed, the hdisk for the device that is

managed by HDLM still remains.
If you execute the

dlmrmdev

utility with the

-e

parameter specified at step 6 and

then the

KAPL09172-E

message is displayed, the hdisk for the device that is

managed by HDLM still remains, and its status is

Available
