If you install HDLM while the Startup Type setting for the Windows

Installer service is disabled or while another program is using the

Windows Installer service, the installation might fail.
If this problem occurs, make sure that both of the above conditions are

satisfied, and then install HDLM again.
Be aware that even though an upgrade or re-installation of HDLM failed,

the Add/Remove Programs window might indicate that HDLM has been

installed normally.

In Windows 7 (x64) , Windows Server 2008, and Windows Vista (x64), we

recommend that you install HDLM in a folder other than Program Files.

When you add the path for the perlpath or vclipath environment variable

of VMware vSphere CLI to the Path system environment variable, do not

enclose the path in double quotation marks (").
If the path is enclosed in double quotation marks ("), operations

performed from Global Link Manager might fail.

Installing HDLM

First, check whether HDLM has already been installed on the host and remote

management client where you are going to install HDLM. If HDLM has already

been installed, follow the procedure described in

Performing an Upgrade

Installation of HDLM on page 3-11

or

Performing a Re-installation of HDLM

on page 3-11

.

When you install HDLM, Hitachi Network Objectplaza Trace Library will also be

installed.

The file path of the Hitachi Network Objectplaza Trace Library integrated

trace information file is program-installation-destination-drive:\Program
Files

#

\HITACHI\HNTRLib2\spool\Hntr2n.log, where n is the number of the

integrated trace information file.

#

For Windows 7 (x64) , Windows Server 2008, and Windows Vista (x64),
Program Files is Program Files (x86).

Performing a New Installation of HDLM

The following describes how to perform a new installation of HDLM. Perform

the installation process on the remote management client and the host.

The installation procedure described here assumes that VMware vSphere has

been installed on the host, and the host and the storage system are

connected in a multi-path configuration.

When performing a new installation on a remote management client, you can

perform an unattended installation by using the HDLM install utility

(installhdlm). An unattended installation enables a user to install HDLM

without entering information during processing. For details on the
