3. Creating an HDLM Environment

246

storage system. This information will enable you to keep the correspondence with

the logical device file names after HDLM has been uninstalled.
You can collect this correspondence information by outputting the results of the

dlnkmgr

command's

view -path

operation to a file. The following shows an

example of executing the command:

# /opt/DynamicLinkManager/bin/dlnkmgr view -path > /var/tmp/
old_view_path_list.txt

Note

Do not specify any of the directories shown below as the output destination

of the results of the

dlnkmgr

command's

view -path

operation. If you

specify one of these directories, the file will be removed when you uninstall

HDLM.
-

/opt/DynamicLinkManager

-

/opt/hitachi

-

/var/opt/DynamicLinkManager

-

/var/opt/hitachi

3.

Back up the logical device files within the

/dev/dsk

,

/dev/rdsk

directories to

another directory.
The following shows an example of executing the commands:

# mkdir /var/tmp/bkfile2
# ls -l /dev/dsk > /var/tmp/bkfile2/devices1
# ls -l /dev/rdsk > /var/tmp/bkfile2/devices2

4.

Stop all processes and services that are using HDLM-managed paths.
Stop all processes and services of DBMS and other applications that are using

HDLM-managed paths.

5.

Unregister the HDLM-managed devices.
If HDLM-managed devices are registered with applications, including cluster

software programs (other than Volume Manager), unregister those devices. Since

HDLM-managed devices are accessed by using the logical device file names of

the HDLM devices, these applications will no longer be able to access those

HDLM-managed devices by using the names currently used.

6.

Use the following command to unmount all mount points that are using HDLM:


# umount

mount-point
