Also, these files need to be copied to the same directory to which the
installhdlm utility is copied.

.
If you are upgrading or re-installing HDLM, back up the HDLM settings.
If an upgrade installation or re-installation fails, AIX automatically
removes HDLM, and the HDLM settings are deleted.
Perform this step so that a copy of the HDLM settings is available in this
case.
If an upgrade installation or re-installation fails, perform a new
installation, and then re-execute setup to reflect the settings that have
been backed up.
¢
Save the HDLM environment settings information.
# /usr/DynamicLinkManager/bin/dlnkmgr view -sys > any-file-
name
Make sure that the license has not expired.
¢
Save the HDLM execution environment ODM settings.
# /usr/DynamicLinkManager/bin/dlmodmset -o > any-file-name

.
In the following cases, prepare the license key or the license key file:
¢
If you are installing HDLM for the first time
¢
If you are upgrading or re-installing HDLM after the licensing term has
expired
If the directory that contains the license key or the license key file is
specified in the installation information settings file, you can use any
storage directory name and file name.
The following shows examples of when the default storage directory
specified in the installation information settings file is to be used:
¢
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
The license key file or license key is not deleted after the installation.

.
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.
