To perform an upgrade installation of HDLM in a multi-path boot disk environment
that uses an HDLM device, and set up the environment:
1.
Log in to Linux as a user with root permissions.
2. Make sure that the HDLM device is specified in the definition in the
/etc/
fstab
file.
Make sure that the mount points for the following HDLM management-target
devices are defined so that the HDLM device will be mounted:
• When
ELILO
is used as the boot loader:
Root directory (
/
),
/boot/efi
,
/tmp
,
/usr
,
/var
,
swap
• When
GRUB
is used as the boot loader:
Root directory (
/
),
/boot
,
/tmp
,
/usr
,
/var
,
swap
• When

is used as the boot loader:
