3. Creating an HDLM Environment
92
See the HBA documentation and manual to complete the required setup.
8. If your configuration uses an IP-SAN, install and set up the iSCSI initiator (iSCSI
software or HBA).
For details, see the iSCSI initiator documentation, the documentation for the
HBA, or the storage system documentation.
9. Prepare the LUs.
For each LU that you want to use, be sure to write signatures, create partitions,
and then format them. Because the system is still in the single path configuration,
no problems will occur even if you write a signature for each LU.
10. Restart the host.
11. Confirm that the host is operating normally.
3.5.2 Preparations for Installing HDLM by Performing an Unattended
Installation
An unattended installation allows a user to install HDLM without having to enter
information into dialog boxes or specify HDLM functions. Instead, the user defines the
required information for the dialog boxes in an installation-information settings file
prior to running the installation. The procedure for an unattended installation is as
follows:
1.
Specify the required information for the installation in the
installation-information settings file.
2. Execute the
installhdlm
utility.
3. Information will be automatically entered into the dialog boxes or HDLM
functions, as defined in the installation-information settings file.
4. The installation will finish and log data will be output, showing the status and
result of the installation.
This section describes the following aspects of an unattended installation:
• How to create an installation-information settings file
• Notes on installation
For details on the
installhdlm
utility, see 7.7 The installhdlm Utility for Installing
HDLM.
For details about performing an unattended installation, see 3.5.3 Performing a New
Installation of HDLM on Windows Server 2003 or 3.5.4 Performing a New
Installation of HDLM on Windows Server 2008.
