3. Creating an HDLM Environment

The KAPL10529-I message is displayed.

If the

KAPL10529-I message is not displayed, the HDLM management-target

device has not been deleted. Make sure that no processes, services, file systems,

or volume groups are using any HDLM management-target paths, and then

re-execute the above utility.

Note that an hdisk recognized as a boot disk will not be deleted.

7. Execute the following command to make sure that the hdisks recognized as the

devices to be managed by HDLM have been deleted:

# lsdev -Cc disk

8. Prepare the license key or license key file.

• When only the license key has been provided

Create the

/var/DLM directory, and then, in this directory, create the license

key file (

dlm.lic_key). The following shows an example when the license

key is

123456789ABCDEF:

# mkdir /var/DLM

# echo "123456789ABCDEF" > /var/DLM/dlm.lic_key

• When the license key file has been provided

Store the license key file directly under the

/var/tmp/ directory by using

the

hdlm_license name.

/var/tmp/hdlm_license

Note that the hdlm_license and dlm.lic_key files are deleted after

installation finishes successfully.

9. Execute the following command:

• When installing HDLM from the DVD-ROM

# /directory-in-which-the-DVD-ROM-is-mounted/installux.sh

# installp -aXgd /directory-in-which-the-DVD-ROM-is-mounted/

HDLM_AIX all

• When installing HDLM from the directory to which the DVD-ROM was

copied

# /directory-copied-from-DVD-ROM/installux.sh
