3. Creating an HDLM Environment

121

If you are not performing an unattended installation, insert the DVD into the

drive and run the installation program

setup.exe

.

The program checks whether HDLM has already been installed. If the

KAPL09173-W message appears, perform the procedure shown in

3.5.5 Upgrade Installation or Re-installation of HDLM. If a message does

not appear, go to the next step.

If you are performing an unattended installation, execute the

installhdlm

utility.
From the command prompt, execute the following command:
drive-containing-the-inserted-installation-DVD

:\HDLM_Windows\DLMTo

ols\installhdlm -f

installation-information-settings-file

This command checks whether HDLM has already been installed. If the

KAPL09183-I message appears, a re-installation will be performed.
If you specified

n

for the

restart

key in the installation-information

settings file, go to step 8.
If you specified

y

for the

restart

key in the installation-information

settings file, go to step 18.

4.

Specify a license key file or enter the license key by following the instructions

shown in the messages that appear in the window.

If a license key file was saved in step 2, specify that license key file.
If a license key file is not being used, specify the license key directly.

5.

Specify the installation folder by following the instructions shown in the

messages that appear in the window.
The utility for registering HDLM persistent reservation keys (

dlmprsvkey

) will

be automatically executed to create a PRSV key. However, creation of the PRSV

key might be unsuccessful if, for example, an NIC does not exist. If the PRSV key

is created with time information only, or if key creation fails, a dialog box will

prompt you to enter the PRSV key.
If this dialog box appears, go to step 6; otherwise, go to step 7.

6.

Enter the PRSV key by following the instructions shown in the dialog box.
The PRSV key is required for the HDLM functions to properly operate. Also, the

value of the PRSV key must be unique for each host.
If the KAPL09128-W message appears, you will need to re-enter the correct

PRSV key.

7.

Follow the instructions shown in the messages that appear in the window.
