If you use the dlmsetopt utility in an environment where an HDLM device

is used for the boot disk, after changing the settings, you need to re-

create the initial RAM disk image file. To re-create the file, use the dracut

command for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6, and the dlmmkinitrd utility for

supporting a boot disk for other OSs. If you change the name of the initial

RAM disk image file, change the settings file for the boot loader so that

the re-created initial RAM disk image file is used during boot-up. For

details on this procedure, see

Table 7-9 Setting file names for boot

loaders on page 7-38

dlmstart Utility for Starting HDLM

You must perform the following operations after installing HDLM:

Load an HDLM alert driver and a filter driver.

Configure an HDLM device.
