Notes:
• If the Global Link Manager version is earlier than 8.0, Global Link
Manager cannot coexist with a Hitachi Command Suite product whose
version is earlier than 4.0. Therefore, do not install Global Link Manager
on a machine in which a Hitachi Command Suite product whose version is
earlier than 4.0 is already installed.
• If the Global Link Manager version is 8.0 or later, Global Link Manager
cannot coexist with a Hitachi Command Suite product whose version is
earlier than 8.0. Therefore, make sure that the version of each Hitachi
Command Suite product to be installed or upgraded is 8.0 or later.
• Global Link Manager cannot coexist with the HiRDB products listed below.
Therefore, do not install Global Link Manager on a machine in which any
of the following HiRDB products is already installed. Also, do not install
any of the following HiRDB products on a machine in which Global Link
Manager is already installed.

• A static IP address must be set for the Global Link Manager server. Do not
use DHCP. Connections using the IPv4 and IPv6 protocols are supported.
When the IPv6 protocol is used, both IPv4 and IPv6 need to be enabled
on the management server. Only global IPv6 addresses can be used.
• Before installing Global Link Manager, make sure that you set the current
time for the local time of the machine on which you are going to install
Global Link Manager. If the current time is not set, path availability
information (path status log) might not be acquired correctly. If you want
to change the time either after installing Global Link Manager or in an
environment in which other Hitachi Command Suite products have been
installed, see
Changing the Time of the Machine on which Global Link
Manager Is Installed on page 3-5.
