Checking an Added Path

You can add a path, by inserting a cable into an existing LU, even while the

host (on which HDLM is installed) is running.

When you add a path without adding an LU, what is displayed in the disk

management window does not changed.

You can confirm that a path has been added by using the HDLM command
view operation, or the HDLM GUI.

Figure 4-2 Using the command to confirm

that a path has been added on page 4-18

shows an example of using the

command to confirm that a path has been added. For an example of how to

use the HDLM GUI to confirm that a path has been added, see the HDLM GUI

Help.

Note:

¢

The PathID is determined by the system choosing the smallest,

available number that is not already in use for another path. For

example, when a path is deleted, and then a new path is added, the

PathID for the added path might not be the same number as the

deleted PathID.

¢

When a path not recognized by Windows is added to an LU for the

first time, the following messages might appear:
- KAPL08019-E and KAPL08022-E
- KAPL05301-E
Note that these messages are output by Windows activities, and not

by an error in HDLM.
