HP Hitachi Dynamic Link Manager Software - Manual (Page 161)

• You can display and use the HDLM GUI windows for the Thunder 9500V
series, Lightning 9900 series, Lightning 9900V series, Hitachi USP, Hitachi
AMS2000/AMS/WMS/SMS series, Universal Storage Platform V/VM, and
Virtual Storage Platform. If you specify the EMC DMX series, EMC CX
series, or HP EVA series as an HDLM management-target device, use
HDLM commands to display information and set the operating
environment. For details about the various command operations, see 6
Command Reference on page 6-1 .
• When using the EMC CX series, connect only one storage port to the
switch, and then connect the switch to the server in a multi-path
configuration.
Using Symantec Backup Exec for Windows and the Veritas
NetBackup Intelligent Disaster Recovery Function
When you use Symantec Backup Exec for Windows and the Veritas
NetBackup Intelligent Disaster Recovery function, the following might occur:
• If all the paths experience a failure, and then Windows is able to
recognize some or all of the paths, the disk numbers might end up
changing from the ones that were used when the host first started up. If
that happens, restarting the host will restore the original disk numbers.
After restoring the original disk numbers, use Symantec Backup Exec for
Windows or the Veritas NetBackup Intelligent Disaster Recovery function.
• If you restore Windows Server 2003, the STOP:c0000135 error message
will appear and the system will stop. If that happens, restart the host. If
the Windows Management Instrumentation information cannot be
restored, then the HDLM performance monitor can no longer be used. If
that happens, re-install HDLM.
Using Windows Server 2008
Windows Server 2008 supports user account control (UAC). You can use any
of the following methods to execute HDLM functions (the dlnkmgr command,
utilities, the HDLM GUI, and so on) in Windows Server 2008:
• Perform the HDLM operation using the Administrator account.
• To execute the dlnkmgr command or an HDLM utility as a non-
administrator user, use the Administrator: Command Prompt window.
• To access the HDLM GUI or acquire error information with an account as a
non-administrator user, use the Run as administrator.
If you attempt to perform an HDLM operation by any other method, a dialog
box will appear, requesting confirmation that you have administrator
permissions.
