3. Creating an HDLM Environment

126

Perform the installation.

• 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.
At the command prompt, execute the following command:
drive-containing-the-inserted-installation-DVD

:\HDLM_Windows\DLMTo

ols\installhdlm -f

installation-information-settings-file

Specify

for the

restart

key in the installation-information settings file.

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

KAPL09183-I message appears, the re-installation will be performed.
After the installation is complete, go to step 11

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 5, specify that license key file.
• If a license key file is not being used, specify the license key directly.

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. 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 register the PRSV key.
If this dialog box appears, go to step 9; otherwise, go to step 10.

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.
If a message does not appear, go to the next step.
