Cluster Software Supported by HDLM

When you use HDLM in a cluster configuration, you must install the same
version of HDLM on all of the nodes that make up the cluster. If different
versions of HDLM are installed, the cluster might not operate correctly. If
HDLM Version and Service Pack Version, which you can display by
executing the following command, are the same, then the HDLM versions are
also the same:
# /opt/DynamicLinkManager/bin/dlnkmgr view -sys
Always use Heartbeat (1.2.5-0.3) in order to create a cluster configuration.
Note that environments that combine Heartbeat and LVM are not supported.

Volume Managers Supported by HDLM

Use LVM2.01.14-3.23 as a volume manager.
