4. HDLM Operation
171
• If the OS is Windows Server 2008:
EMC CX series: HDLM 6.4 or later
• You can display and use the HDLM GUI windows for the Thunder 9500V series,
Lightning 9900 series, Lightning 9900V series, Hitachi USP, Hitachi AMS2000/
AMS/WMS/SMS series, Universal Storage Platform V/VM, and Virtual Storage
Platform. If you specify the EMC DMX series, EMC CX series, or HP EVA series
as an HDLM management-target device, use HDLM commands to display
information and set the operating environment. For details about the various
command operations, see 6. Command Reference.
• When using the EMC CX series, connect only one storage port to the switch, and
then connect the switch to the server in a multi-path configuration.
4.1.5 Using Symantec Backup Exec for Windows and the Veritas
NetBackup Intelligent Disaster Recovery Function
When you use Symantec Backup Exec for Windows and the Veritas NetBackup
Intelligent Disaster Recovery function, the following might occur:
• If all the paths experience a failure, and then Windows is able to recognize some
or all of the paths, the disk numbers might end up changing from the ones that
were used when the host first started up. If that happens, restarting the host will
restore the original disk numbers. After restoring the original disk numbers, use
Symantec Backup Exec for Windows or the Veritas NetBackup Intelligent
Disaster Recovery function.
• If you restore Windows Server 2003, the
STOP:c0000135
error message will
appear and the system will stop. If that happens, restart the host. If the Windows
Management Instrumentation information cannot be restored, then the HDLM
performance monitor can no longer be used. If that happens, re-install HDLM.
4.1.6 Using Windows Server 2008
Windows Server 2008 supports user account control (UAC). You can use any of the
following methods to execute HDLM functions (the
dlnkmgr
command, utilities, the
HDLM GUI, and so on) in Windows Server 2008:
• Perform the HDLM operation using the Administrator account.
• To execute the
dlnkmgr
command or an HDLM utility as a non-administrator
user, use the Administrator: Command Prompt window.
• To access the HDLM GUI or acquire error information with an account as a
non-administrator user, use the Run as administrator.
If you attempt to perform an HDLM operation by any other method, a dialog box will
appear, requesting confirmation that you have administrator permissions.
