Performing a New Installation of HDLM

When Installing HDLM in a Local Boot Disk Environment

To perform a new installation of HDLM:
1 Log in to AIX as the root user.
.
If you are using a virtual I/O server, see the virtual I/O server
documentation to log in to AIX.
2 If there is no directory for mounting the DVD-ROM, make the directory.
.
# mkdir /cdrom
cdrom is the desired directory name. Hereafter, cdrom is used for
purposes of explanation.
3 Mount the DVD-ROM.
.
# mount -r -v cdrfs /dev/cd0 /cdrom
The /dev/cd0 part depends on the system.
4 Execute the following command to check that the devices to be managed
.
by HDLM have been recognized by the system:
# lsdev -Cc disk
hdisk0
hdisk1
hdisk2
hdisk3
hdisk4
...
In this example, hdisk3 and hdisk4 are recognized as devices to be
managed by HDLM. If all devices to be managed by HDLM are recognized,
proceed to step 5.
If any devices to be managed by HDLM are not recognized, proceed to
step 7.
5 Execute the following utility to remove, from the running kernel, the
.
HDLM management-target device:
# /cdrom/HDLM_AIX/hdlmtool/dlmrmdev -f
The KAPL10529-I message is displayed.
If the KAPL10529-I message is not displayed, the HDLM management-
target device has not been deleted. Make sure that no processes,
services, file systems, or volume groups are using any HDLM
management-target paths, and then re-execute the above utility.
6 Execute the following command to make sure that the hdisk recognized
.
as the device to be managed by HDLM has been deleted:
# lsdev -Cc disk
7 Prepare the license key or license key file.
