3.3 HDLM Installation Types

This section describes the following types of HDLM installations: new installation,

upgrade installation, migration, and re-installation.
New installation of HDLM:

Installing HDLM on a server, which HDLM has never been installed on, is called

a new installation of HDLM.

Upgrade installation of HDLM:

Installing a newer version of HDLM over the existing version without
uninstalling the existing version is called an upgrade installation of HDLM. You

can perform an upgrade installation for only HDLM 5.5 or later.

Migration of HDLM:

Installing HDLM 5.5 or later after uninstalling HDLM 5.4 or earlier is called a

migration of HDLM. By doing this, you can keep the settings from the previous

version.

Re-installation of HDLM:

Installing the same version of HDLM, in order to restore the existing version,

without first uninstalling that version is called a re-installation of HDLM.

When installing HDLM, you can select either of the following modes for installing the

HDLM programs you want:

• HDLM Core components

Install all HDLM programs except for HDLM GUI and Hitachi Command Suite

Common Agent Component.

• All HDLM components

Install all HDLM programs.
