30. Check the path configuration according to the procedure described in
3.6 Checking the Path Configuration.
(2) When Installing HDLM in a Boot Disk Environment
To perform a new installation of HDLM:
1. Use a single-path configuration for host and storage systems.
2. Log in to AIX as the root user.
If you are using a virtual I/O server, see the virtual I/O server documentation to
log in to AIX.
3. If there is no directory for mounting the DVD-ROM, make the directory.
# mkdir /
cdrom
cdrom is the desired directory name. Hereafter, cdrom is used for purposes of
explanation.
4. Mount the DVD-ROM.
# mount -r -v cdrfs /dev/cd0 /
cdrom
The /dev/cd0 part depends on the system.
5. Execute the following command to check that the devices to be managed by
HDLM have been recognized by the system:
# lsdev -Cc disk
hdisk0 Available 1S-08-00-8,0 16 Bit LVD SCSI Disk Drive
hdisk1 Available 1S-08-00-9,0 16 Bit LVD SCSI Disk Drive
hdisk2 Available 1S-08-00-10,0 16 Bit LVD SCSI Disk Drive
hdisk3 Available 1H-08-02 Hitachi Disk Array (Fibre)
hdisk4 Available 1H-08-02 Hitachi Disk Array (Fibre)
...
In this example, hdisk3 and hdisk4 are recognized as devices to be managed
by HDLM. If all devices to be managed by HDLM are recognized, proceed to step
6.
If any devices to be managed by HDLM are not recognized, proceed to step 8.
6. Execute the following utility to remove, from the running kernel, the HDLM
management-target device:
# /cdrom/HDLM_AIX/hdlmtool/dlmrmdev -f
