time once it is recognized. Even if the recognized HDLM device is not available

because this path is disconnected or the LU is deallocated, the path information

for the unavailable HDLM device will not be deleted automatically. Because the

unused HDLM device path information is preserved, newly defined LUs and

added paths cannot be used in some cases. This parameter is useful to eliminate

such a problem.
If you specify this parameter with

all

, an HDLM device, which was simply

disconnected at host boot time but is currently being used, might be assumed to

be deleted. Before executing the

dlmcfgmgr

utility with this parameter set to a

value of

all

, check the status of the HDLM device to be deleted by executing this

utility with the

-v

parameter.

-logfs [

dlmcfgmgr-utility-log-file-size

]

Use this parameter to change the size of the

dlmcfgmgr

utility log file

(

dlmcfgmgr[1-2].log

).

For dlmcfgmgr-utility-log-file-size, specify a value in the range from 1024 to

999999 (in KB).
If the number of LUs to be managed by HDLM is 65 or more or the number of

paths to be managed by HDLM is 129 or more, we recommend that you specify

a value of 10240 KB or more.
When you change the log file size, the size of the current

dlmcfgmgr[1-2].log

file is not changed. The next

dlmcfgmgr[1-2].log

file will be created with the

specified file size.
If you do not specify the log file size for the

dlmcfgmgr

utility, the current setting

is displayed.
