4. HDLM Operation

269

The shaded portion indicates mapping from combinations of sd or ssd device types and

instance numbers to HDLM device logical device file names.

4.1.4 Storage System

Start up the storage system before you start up the hosts, so that Solaris can detect

the storage system.

Do not change the vendor ID or product ID of a storage system. If you change

either of them, HDLM will not be able to recognize the storage system.

4.1.5 Command Execution

When a path error occurs while a file system is being created or formatted or the

fsck

command is being executed, the operation might not have been completed. If so,

recover from the path error, and then perform the operation again.

4.1.6 Using a Sun HBA

If all of the following conditions are satisfied, the KAPL08019-E and KAPL08022-E

messages indicating a path error may be output to

/var/adm/messages

during boot

processing (even when the path is normal):

Solaris 8 or Solaris 9 is used.
A Sun HBA that the ssd driver recognizes is used.

If this situation occurs, execute the

dlnkmgr

view

-path

command to check the path

status after the completion of booting. There are no problems if the path is in

Online

status.
