-update

Specify this parameter when performing an upgrade installation or a

reinstallation of HDLM. If you specify this parameter, an upgrade

installation can be performed while HDLM is in use.
However, you need to restart the server immediately after upgrade

installation or reinstallation is completed.
An initial RAM disk image file is automatically created after upgrade

installation or reinstallation is completed. The format of the name of the
created initial RAM disk image file depends on the version

#

of the current

OS. If a file with the same name as the initial RAM disk image file to be

created already exists, the existing file is saved by adding the

extension .save to the file name. The backup file for one generation is

saved.
The format of the name of the created file is as follows:

¢

Red Hat Enterprise Linux4, Red Hat Enterprise Linux5, Oracle

Enterprise Linux4, Oracle Enterprise Linux5, or Oracle Unbreakable

Enterprise Kernel5:
initrd-hdlm-version-of-the-current-OS

#

Red Hat Enterprise Linux6 or Oracle Unbreakable Enterprise Kernel6:
