Create an installation information settings file.
To use the sample file, copy it from the DVD-ROM to a directory on the

hard disk.

# cp -p /cdrom/HDLM_AIX/hdlmtool/instutil/

sample_installhdlm.conf /any-directory

You can change the sample_installhdlm.conf file name.
The following shows an example of copying the
sample_installhdlm.conf file, and then changing the file name to
install_set.conf:

# cp -p /cdrom/HDLM_AIX/hdlmtool/instutil/

sample_installhdlm.conf /any-directory/install_set.conf

installation, you do not have to restart the host. When installation is

successful, the KAPL09211-I message is output.
During installation, the KAPL09241-W message might be output. In this

case, installation of HDLM continues, but installation of HDLM components

has failed. After installing HDLM, resolve the problem according to the
