4. HDLM Operation

203

# bootlist -m normal hdisk0 hdisk1

4. Make sure that the boot disk is configured with the specified number of paths.

The following shows an example of executing the command:

# bootlist -m normal -o

hdisk0 blv=hd5

hdisk1 blv=hd5

...

(3) Deleting a Path (of a Volume Group Other than rootvg)

The following shows an example of deleting a path of a volume group other than

rootvg.

1. Execute the following HDLM command to check the OS management path ID of

the path that is to be deleted and to determine the devices (hdisk name) connected

to the path.

# /usr/DynamicLinkManager/bin/dlnkmgr view -drv

PathID HDevName OSPathID LDEV

000000 hdisk5 00000 USP.0014050.0065

000001 hdisk5 00001 USP.0014050.0065

000002 hdisk5 00002 USP.0014050.0065

000003 hdisk10 00000 9500V.5457.0102

000004 hdisk10 00001 9500V.5457.0102

000005 hdisk10 00002 9500V.5457.0102

For each path ID (PathID column), check the entries in the HDevName and

OSPathID columns. In the following steps, device-name and OS-management-

path-ID refer to the

HDevName and OSPathID items, respectively, that you

checked in this step.

2. Execute the following command to check the parent device and connection of the

path to be deleted:

Specify the device-name checked in step 1 in executing the following command:

# lspath -Hl

device-name -F "name path_id parent connection"

When hdisk10 is specified, the command and the execution results would be as

follows:
