Notes
• Before you execute the dlmchpdattr utility, stop all application processes
that access HDLM-managed devices.
• Before you execute the dlmchpdattr utility, make sure that no path
errors are occurring. If there are any errors, the dlmchpdattr utility
might end with an error.
• If you cancel the execution of the dlmchpdattr utility by pressing Ctrl +
C, the KAPL10571-I message might be output depending on the timing of
the cancellation. This message signifies that the setting change was not
successful. If this message is output, re-execute the dlmchpdattr utility
with the same parameters specified. To return the settings to their
previous state, make sure that the above setting change was successful,
and then execute the dlmchpdattr utility with the original parameters
specified.
