The -r parameter was specified when executing the dlmsetconf utility for

creating the HDLM driver configuration definition file.

The LUN configuration was changed for the path to be used by HDLM to

determine the logical device file name of the HDLM device.

If the HDLM logical device file has been re-created by specifying the different

file name, perform the following procedures:

Change the disk settings being used by the application programs.

When using VxVM, execute the following command to confirm that the
DEVICE column of the LUs being managed by HDLM is displayed in the
cWtXdYsZ format (for example, c6t0d10s2):

# vxdisk list

If the value is displayed in the cWtXdYsZ format, perform the following

procedures:

a

.

Delete the /etc/vx/disk.info file.

b

.

Restart the host, or restart the VxVM configuration daemon by

executing the following command:
# vxconfigd -k

If the logical device file before re-creation might remain in the /dev/dsk

and /dev/rdsk directories, you must delete the logical device file before

re-creation. Delete the logical device file before its re-creation, and then

follow the instructions in

Changing the Configuration of a System that

Uses HDLM on page 4-17

.

The logical device file names of HDLM devices on each LU are determined by

using the path (physical device file name corresponding to the sd or ssd

device) that can be obtained by using the following procedure:

To obtain the path to an LU:

1

.

Obtain the instance number of the HDLM driver corresponding to the LU.
Execute the following command to display the minor number of the HDLM

device of the desired LU (HDLM device on slice 0). The value obtained by

dividing the displayed minor number by 8 is the instance number of

HDLM.

# /usr/bin/ls -lL HDLM-logical-device-file-name-on-slice-0

The following shows an example of executing the command.
This example obtains the instance number of the HDLM driver of the LU

whose logical device file name is /dev/dsk/c4t21d0s0. In this case, since

the minor number is 8, the instance number is 1.

2

.

Obtain path information from the instance number of the HDLM driver.
