Configuring a Boot Disk Environment

This section explains how to configure a boot disk environment in which

HDLM manages the boot disk. An environment with a boot disk located on the

host is called a local boot disk environment.

Overview of Configuring a Boot Disk Environment

To configure a boot disk environment in which HDLM manages the boot disk,

prepare a separate disk that is not managed by HDLM, and set up an

environment including Solaris, HDLM, and the applications to be used

installed on that disk. If you already have such an environment, you do not

need to set it up again. In this section, such an environment is called the pre-

migration environment or pre-migration. Configure the boot disk environment

using this prepared, or existing, pre-migration environment. The boot disk

environment in which HDLM manages the boot disk is called the post-

migration environment or post-migration in this section.

The procedures for using these three types of existing environments as pre-

migration environments, and for building a new pre-migration environment,

are summarized as follows:

To use an existing local boot disk environment in which HDLM is installed

as the pre-migration environment:
Perform the procedure described in
