How to Create an Installation-Information Settings File
For an installation-information settings file, you need to define the license key
file name, installation destination folder, and then any other information that
is required for the particular installation.
HDLM provides a sample file in order to simplify the editing process of an
installation-information settings file. The sample file is located on the supplied
DVD.
To edit the installation-information settings file:
1
.
Copy the sample file for the installation-information settings file to any
folder.
The location of the sample file is as follows:
drive-to-which-the-installation-DVD-is-inserted:\HDLM_Windows
\DLMTools\sample_installhdlm.ini
2
.
Use a text editor to edit the sample file that was copied in step 1, in order
to create an installation-information settings file for your particular
configuration.
Items that need to be defined in the installation-information settings file

settings file, the computer will restart after the installation finishes
successfully. Make sure that you check the results of the installation in
installhdlm.log, if you had to forcibly stop the execution of the
installhdlm utility.

The disk capacity necessary for the execution of the installhdlm utility is
as follows:
A folder specified in the workdir key (if the workdir key has not been
specified, a folder specified in the TMP or TEMP environment variable)
must have at least 20 KB of free disk capacity.

Information for the HDLM operation can also be specified by using the
HDLM command's set operation. To specify the information by using this
way, see
