3.14 Uninstalling HDLM

This section explains how to return the HDLM environment to the way it was before

HDLM was installed, and describes each step of the process.

3.14.1 Preparations for HDLM Uninstallation

 Back up all HDLM management-target devices onto a medium such as a tape.

 Uninstall HDLM in a multi-user mode environment.

 When uninstalling HDLM on a host where version 5.0 or later of a Device

Manager agent is installed, do not execute any of the following Device Manager

agent commands during the uninstallation. Also, do not uninstall HDLM while

executing any of the following Device Manager agent commands:

hbsasrv, HiScan, hdvmagt_account, hdvmagt_schedule, hldutil,

3.14.2 Uninstalling HDLM

When you uninstall HDLM, if the KAPL09019-E or KAPL09020-E message is output,

follow the directions in 3.14.3 Uninstalling Hitachi Network Objectplaza Trace

Library (HNTRLib2) to uninstall HNTRLib2. However, if the

KAPL09026-I message

is output, since a program other than HDLM is using Hitachi Network Objectplaza

Trace Library (HNTRLib2), only HDLM will be uninstalled.

You can use the

installp command or SMIT to uninstall HDLM. The following

explains how to uninstall HDLM using the

installp command. For details about

how to use SMIT, see the AIX documentation.

For the virtual I/O server and boot disk environment, execute the required steps among

those listed below.
