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.
