In the actual file name, a file number is appended to Trace-file-prefix

specified-in-the-Hitachi-Network-Objectplaza-Trace-Library-utility2. For

example, the default will be hntr21.log to hntr216.log. Note that the

number 2 following the integrated trace file prefix does not represent a

file number.

dlmchpdattr Utility for Changing HDLM Default Settings

This utility changes the default value for the hdisk attribute.

By changing the default value, the attribute value set for an hdisk can be

changed in the following cases:

When a new hdisk is configured.

When the chdev command is used to set as defined, and then

reconfigure, an existing individual hdisk for which the attribute value has

not changed.

When deleting an existing hdisk

#

, and then reconfiguring it.

#

When an hdisk for which the attribute value has been defined is

reconfigured without being deleted, the set attribute value is carried over.

If the attribute value for individual hdisks needs to be changed, instead of

using this utility, execute the chdev command for the necessary hdisks.

Note that if the attribute value has been set for each hdisk, the set attribute

values will be applied.

Supplemental Information:

For HDLM 6.2, the default value for the hdisk reservation policy was set to
PR_exclusive. When the conditions listed in

Table 3-19 Reservation Policy

Settings on page 3-87

in

About the Reservation Policy on page 3-87

are met,

to change the reservation policy to no_reserve, the chdev command had to

be executed for each hdisk.

In HDLM 6.3 or later, the default reservation policy values for multiple hdisks

can be changed simultaneously by executing the dlmchpdattr utility.
