To change an LU, we recommend that you add a new LU and then delete
the existing one, rather than changing a LU in the storage system
management program. After adding the new LU, move data as required
from the LU you are deleting to the new LU. For details on adding a new
LU, see
system management program to change the LDEV of the LU, an instance
of the HDLM driver will not be created. As a result, it may not be possible
to verify the changed configuration until you create an HDLM driver
configuration definition file (/kernel/drv/dlmfdrv.conf).
