Identify the physical volume used for booting:
# getconf BOOT_DEVICE
hdisk3
In this example, hdisk3 is used for booting.
If the boot physical volume that contains the logical volume hd5 is
different from the physical volume used for booting, the following
message appears, and the HDLM installation ends with an error:
0503-497 installp: An error occurred during bosboot test
processing.
To make the physical volume that contains the boot logical volume hd5
the same as the physical volume used for booting, execute the bootlist
command by specifying the physical volume that contains the boot logical
volume hd5, and then restart the host.
The following shows an example of executing the command when the
physical volume that contains the boot logical volume hd5 is hdisk3:
# bootlist -m normal hdisk3
After restarting the host, perform the procedure again from step 2.
4. Insert the DVD-ROM.
If you are installing HDLM from a directory in which files on the DVD-ROM
are copied, make sure that the file organization has not been changed. If
the file organization has changed, the installhdlm utility might not
function correctly:
# mkdir /cdrom
# mount -r -v cdrfs /dev/cd0 /cdrom
# mkdir /tmp/hdlm
# cp -rp /cdrom/HDLM_AIX /tmp/hdlm/
# cp -p /cdrom/installux.sh /tmp/hdlm/
If you copied the files on the DVD-ROM to your desired directory, proceed
to step 6.
5. 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.
6. Mount the DVD-ROM.
# mount -r -v cdrfs /dev/cd0 /cdrom
The /dev/cd0 part depends on the system.
7. If you are using a copy of the installhdlm utility that you have placed in
a separate directory to install HDLM, make sure you copy the necessary
files from the /cdrom/HDLM_AIX/hdlmtool/instutil directory.
