Notes on Installing HDLM

A license key is required to perform a new installation of HDLM.
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

set (Sets

Up the Operating Environment) on page 6-14

When the dlmcfgmgr utility is executed to change the HDLM device

configuration, memory might become insufficient due to the HAL
daemon

#

. In this case, the host will not respond.

To avoid this, stop the HAL daemon when executing the dlmcfgmgr utility.

The following procedure shows how to stop the HAL daemon.

#

The HAL daemon detects hardware configurations changes, for

example, when a USB device or CD-ROM is inserted.

To stop the HAL daemon:

a

.

Check the status of the HAL daemon.
Execute the /sbin/service command to check the HAL daemon

status. If the daemon is running, running will appear.

# /sbin/service haldaemon status

If the daemon is not running, stopped will appear.

b

.

Check the result of step 1. If the HAL daemon is running, stop the

daemon.
Execute the /sbin/service command to stop the HAL daemon. Note

that it might take a while to stop the daemon completely.
