3.11 Settings for Xen

When HDLM is installed in an environment that uses Xen, the SCSI devices

corresponding to HDLM devices are accessible from a domainU environment.

Therefore, you must specify the certain settings so that the SCSI devices cannot be

accessed from the domainU environment directly.
The following procedure shows how to migrate SCSI device

/dev/sda

, which is

connected in the domainU environment in a single-path configuration, to HDLM

device

/dev/sddlmaa

, which is connected in a multi-path configuration.

1.

Check the correspondence between the HDLM and SCSI devices.
Execute the HDLM configuration definition utility (

dlmcfgmgr

) with the

-v

parameter.


# /sbin/dlmcfgmgr -v
HDevName Management Device Host Channel Target Lun
/dev/sddlmaa configured /dev/sda 2 0 0 0
/dev/sddlmab configured /dev/sdb 2 0 0 1
:
:
KAPL10302-I /sbin/dlmcfgmgr completed normally.
#

HDLM devices are listed in the

HDevName

column, and SCSI devices are listed

in the

Device

column.

2.

Check whether the SCSI devices can be migrated to the HDLM devices.
Execute the command shown below.
In the following example, the

domU

configuration information is retrieved from

the management domain:

# /usr/sbin/xm list -l domU
