, the contents of the disk might become corrupted.Note

that you can upgrade or re-install HDLM in a multipath configuration in

Windows Server 2003 SP1 or later , in Windows Server 2008 and in

Windows Server 2012.

HDLM does not support multiple-path configurations in which both an FC-

SAN and IP-SAN exist on the same LU.

If you install HDLM for the first time, or perform an upgrade installation of

HDLM after the license has expired, a license key is necessary. To update

the HDLM license, execute the dlnkmgr command's set-lic operation.

The expiration date of the license key is determined by the license key

specified in the license key file or the input license key type. For

information on license key types and the set operation, see

set (Sets Up

the Operating Environment) on page 6-16

Installing HDLM requires 70 MB of unused capacity on the system drive.

Terminate all programs that are running before installing HDLM.

If you select a folder for the HDLM installation folder, and then suddenly

decide to change the folder for the installation folder, the first folder that

you selected might be created along with the actual folder you want to

use for the installation folder. Delete the created folder because a folder

other than the last selected folder is not necessary.

Depending on the environment, installing HDLM might take a while to

finish. Do not terminate the installation process while a progress bar for

installation is displayed. The following is an approximate calculation of the

time required for installation:
