without the -e parameter specified, the existing HDLM device is deleted.
Note that if you want to inherit the existing hdisk configuration when the
installed HDLM version is earlier than 6.2, use the dlmrmdev utility
included in the installation DVD-ROM of the HDLM version to be installed.
When dlmrmdev is executed, a message is displayed asking you to
continue processing. Enter y to continue processing.
To inherit the existing hdisk configuration when the version of the
