• The PRSV key will be registered before the installation finishes. If the
KAPL09131-W message appears, follow the procedure described in step 15.
• Although a message prompting you to restart the host appears after the
installation has finished, a restart is not necessary.
• In the last installation window, the following message might be output:
When you manage a host by using Global Link Manager and
Windows firewall is enabled on that host, execute the
firewall_setup command to allow a firewall exception.
If Global Link Manager will not be used to manage HDLM, you do not need
to take any action.
To manage HDLM with Global Link Manager, register Firewall exceptions.

dlmprsvkey

Make sure that the PRSV key displayed by the
dlmprsvkey
utility is unique
among all the other hosts in the SAN. If the PRSV key is not unique or is not
registered, or if the KAPL09131-W message appears, execute the
dlmprsvkey
utility with the
-r
parameter specified to re-register the PRSV key. If the PRSV
key is not registered, the HDLM functions might not properly operate. For details
about the
dlmprsvkey
utility, see 7.4 The dlmprsvkey Utility for Registering an
HDLM Persistent Reservation Key.
