When the Path Configuration Is Changed in a Boot Disk Environment

When HDLM changes the path used to determine the logic device file name of
an HDLM device, perform the procedures below. If this procedure is not
performed, the disk might fail to boot because the name of the physical
device file corresponding to the logical device file changed. To obtain the path
that HDLM uses to determine the logic device file name of an HDLM device,
