Preparations for an Upgrade Installation or Re-installation of HDLM

Before performing an upgrade installation or re-installation of HDLM, back up

the HDLM-managed devices.

Back up the HDLM driver configuration definition file (/kernel/drv/

dlmfdrv.conf)

Back up the HDLM driver configuration definition file (/kernel/drv/
dlmfdrv.conf).

Stopping applications

HDLM manager is inactive during an upgrade installation or re-

installation. For this reason, quit all applications that require log output

and other HDLM manager operations.

Performing an Upgrade Installation or Re-installation of HDLM

You can perform an upgrade installation on a host on which HDLM 05-00 or

later is installed. If you are using an earlier version, remove it while referring

to

Removing HDLM on page 3-184

, and then perform a new installation of

HDLM.

When performing an installation, you can use the existing HDLM driver

configuration definition file (/kernel/drv/dlmfdrv.conf). If the path

configuration has not changed, you will not need to execute the dlmsetconf

utility for creating the HDLM driver configuration definition file.

When upgrading HDLM from a version earlier than 5.4, or when the license

has expired, you must specify a license key file or enter an appropriate

license key.

Notes

¢

Because HDLM manager is inactive during an upgrade installation or

re-installation, no error logs are output. Also, you cannot set HDLM

functions during these types of installation. Restart the host
