Notes on an Upgrade Installation or Re-installation of HDLM
•
A license key is required to perform a re-installation or upgrade
installation of HDLM after the valid license period has expired.
To update the HDLM license, execute the dlnkmgr command's set -lic
operation. The expiration time of the license key is determined by the
type of license key specified in the license key file or entered by the user.
For information on license key types and the set operation, see
Up the Operating Environment) on page 6-15

The HDLM manager is stopped during an upgrade installation. Therefore,
when you perform an upgrade installation, stop any applications that
require HDLM manager operations, such as a log output operation.

Because the HDLM manager is stopped during an upgrade installation,
an error log will not be output. Also, you will not be able to set up
HDLM functions. After the upgrade installation finishes successfully,
immediately restart the host.

Do not cancel an upgrade installation.

Installing HDLM
The following section describes how to install HDLM for a new installation, for
a re-installation, and for an upgrade installation. Depending on the
procedure, the host might have to be restarted after HDLM is installed. HDLM
can also be installed by performing an unattended installation, which enables
a user to install HDLM without entering information. Select the procedure
suitable for your environment.
To create an HDLM device, the HDLM configuration definition utility
dlmcfgmgr is used. For details on the dlmcfgmgr utility, see
