For a large-scale system configuration in which at least 1,024 paths are
managed, a longer time is required to start the host or execute an HDLM
configuration definition utility.
Examples of HDLM configuration definition utility execution times and host
startup times that are measured in the following environment are listed in
Table 3-59 Examples of HDLM Configuration Definition Utility Execution
Times in a Large-scale HDLM Operating Environment on page 3-92 and
Table 3-60 Examples of Host Startup Times in a Large-scale HDLM
Operating Environment on page 3-92.
CPU: Xeon 3.07GHz×24
Memory: 99 GB
