to manually delete the SCSI device.

.

Restart the host on which the HDLM is installed.
If you performed step 4, the host does not have to be restarted. Go to

step 6.

6

.

Execute the HDLM-configuration definition utility (dlmcfgmgr -v) or the
view operation of the dlnkmgr command (dlnkmgr view -drv)

(optional).
Check if the SCSI device name of the HDLM device whose path was

deleted in the above step 2 is represented with a hyphen (-).
The following are examples of executing the command or utility:
When executing the dlmcfgmgr utility with the -v option:

# /sbin/dlmcfgmgr -v

When executing the view operation with the -drv option:

# /opt/DynamicLinkManager/bin/dlnkmgr view -drv

Perform this operation if necessary. If it is not necessary to check this, go

to step 7.
If the SCSI device name is not represented with a hyphen (-), to change

the SCSI device name to a hyphen, wait until the path health checking

has been executed or execute the following dlnkmgr command with the

AutoPATH_ID of the HDLM device.
Example:

# /opt/DynamicLinkManager/bin/dlnkmgr online -pathid AutoPATH_ID

7

.

Execute the dlmcfgmgr utility (dlmcfgmgr -
ulogical_device_file_name_of_HDLM_device ) on the relevant HDLM

device whose path was deleted in the above step 2 to unregister the

HDLM device.
Path information on the relevant HDLM device is deleted.
The following is an example of executing the dlmcfgmgr utility:

# /sbin/dlmcfgmgr -u name-of-logical-device-file-for-HDLM-device

If you execute the dlmcfgmgr utility (dlmcfgmgr -u) when a path to the

HDLM device exists (for example, when you change a multi-path

configuration to a single-path configuration), the KAPL10340-E message

is output. In this case, take action according to this message and refer to

the /var/opt/DynamicLinkManager/log/dlmcfgmgrn.log file (where n is

1 or 2). If the KAPL10362-W message was output to the /var/opt/
DynamicLinkManager/log/dlmcfgmgrn.log file, HDLM operations are not

affected. Go to step 8.
