3. Creating an HDLM Environment

131

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 will appear, the re-installation is performed.
After the installation is complete, go to step 10.

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 4, 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 enter the PRSV key.
If this dialog box appears, go to step 8; otherwise, go to step 9.

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.

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

• The PRSV key will be registered before the installation finishes. If the

KAPL09131-W message appears, follow the procedure described in step 11.

• 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.

For details, see 3.5.8 Firewall Settings for Managing HDLM by Using

Global Link Manager.
