6. The program checks the version of the MPIO driver, and then installs the MPIO driver. If
a message appears asking you whether you want to install MPIO driver, follow the
procedure below:
– The KAPL09127-W message appears if MPIO driver has already been installed and its
version does not match the version of MPIO driver to be installed:
– Click the Next button to install MPIO driver.
– Click the Cancel button to cancel the installation.
– If no message appears, go to the next step.
7. Specify a license key file or enter a license key in accordance with the instructions
shown in the messages that appear on the window:

10. The utility for registering HDLM persistent reservation keys (dlmprsvkey) is automatically
executed to create a PRSV key. The PRSV key is required for the HDLM functions to
operate normally. Also, the value of the PRSV key must be unique among hosts. Creation
of the PRSV key may be unsuccessful if, for example, an NIC does not exist. Do one of
the following in accordance with the result of the execution of the dlmprsvkey utility:
– If the key creation is successful, the created PRSV key appears in the dialog box. If
you do not need to change the value, click the Next button. If you must change the
value because another host already has the same PRSV key, change the value, and
then click the Next button. If you want to undo the change, click the Back button
and then start over from step 9.
– If the creation is unsuccessful, a dialog box appears that prompts you for the PRSV
key. Enter the PRSV key, and then click the OK button.
For the values you can specify for the PRSV key, follow the instructions shown in the
installation program window.
11. The program checks the PRSV key. If the KAPL09128-W message appears:
– Re-enter an appropriate PRSV key. The program then checks the PRSV key again.
– If no message appears, go to the next step.
