HP XP P9000 RAID Manager Installation and Configuration User Guide (T1610-96046, August 2012)
Startup procedures using detached process on DCL
(1) Create the shareable Logical name for RAID if undefined initially.
RAID Manager needs to define the physical device ($1$DGA145…) as either DG* or DK* or GK*
by using SHOW DEVICE command and DEFINE/SYSTEM command, but then does not need to be
mounted in RAID Manager version 01-12-03/03 or earlier.

$$ DEFINE/SYSTEM DKA145 $1$DGA145:$ DEFINE/SYSTEM DKA146 $1$DGA146:::$ DEFINE/SYSTEM DKA153 $1$DGA153:
(2) Define the RAID Manager environment in LOGIN.COM.
You need to define the Path for the RAID Manager commands to DCL$PATH as the foreign command.
See the section about Automatic Foreign Commands in the OpenVMS user documentation.
$ DEFINE DCL$PATH SYS$POSIX_ROOT:[horcm.usr.bin],SYS$POSIX_ROOT:[horcm.etc]
If RAID Manager and HORCM are executing in different jobs (different terminal), then you must
redefine LNM$TEMPORARY_MAILBOX in the LNM$PROCESS_DIRECTORY table as follows:
$ DEFINE/TABLE=LNM$PROCESS_DIRECTORY LNM$TEMPORARY_MAILBOX LNM$GROUP
(3) Discover and describe the command device on SYS$POSIX_ROOT:[etc]horcm0.conf.

You will have to start HORCM without a description for HORCM_DEV and HORCM_INST because
the target ID & LUN are Unknown.
You can determine a mapping of a physical device with a logical name easily by using the raidscan
-find command option.
(4) Execute ‘horcmstart 0’.
$ run /DETACHED SYS$SYSTEM:LOGINOUT.EXE /PROCESS_NAME=horcm0 -
_$ /INPUT=VMS4$DKB100:[SYS0.SYSMGR.][horcm]loginhorcm0.com -
_$ /OUTPUT=VMS4$DKB100:[SYS0.SYSMGR.][horcm]run0.out -
_$ /ERROR=VMS4$DKB100:[SYS0.SYSMGR.][horcm]run0.err
%RUN-S-PROC_ID, identification of created process is 00004160
(5) Verify a physical mapping of the logical device.
