To cancel the reservation for the LU, execute the dlmpr utility from a host
that can access this LU. For details on this utility, see
Clearing HDLM Persistent Reservation on page

Notes on Replicating a System

You can use the OS's mksysb command to back up hosts that include HDLM-
managed devices. If you then replicate (clone) a system from a mksysb
image created in this manner onto another LPAR or host, you must update
the HDLM information to match that of the destination system's environment.
To update the HDLM information to match that of the destination system's
environment, use the following procedure to execute the HDLM restoration
support utility (dlmpostrestore) after you have restored the mksysb image.
To update HDLM information:
1
After restoring the image, log in to the activated host as a user with root
.
permissions.
2
Execute the dlmpostrestore utility.
.
# /usr/DynamicLinkManager/bin/dlmpostrestore
A message for confirming whether to continue processing is displayed
(KAPL10552-I is displayed in a local boot disk environment, and
KAPL10555-I is displayed in a boot disk environment). To continue
processing, enter y in response to this message.
If you executed the utility in a boot disk environment, you must then
restart the host.
For details about the dlmpostrestore utility, see
HDLM Restoration Support on page
