environment
• 4.6.6 Changing the configuration of an HDLM device
• 4.6.7 Reconfiguring an HDLM device without changing its name
„ Eliminating the
rc.shutdown
file
HDLM version 5.8.1 or earlier provided an
rc.shutdown
file in order to avoid
having physical volumes already defined when a host is started. Because this
situation does not occur in HDLM version 5.9 or later, the
rc.shutdown
file is
no longer provided. For this reason, the manual has been changed as follows:
• Section 3.3.13 Notes on Starting a Host in the manual HiCommand Dynamic
Link Manager User's Guide (for AIX(R)) (3000-3-926-50(E)) has been
deleted because it explained the editing method for the
rc.shutdown
file.
• The portion of the procedure related to the
rc.shutdown
file has been
deleted from the explanation of uninstalling HDLM.
• The
rc.shutdown
file has been deleted from the files collected by the
DLMgetras
utility for collecting HDLM error information.
„ The content displayed for
HDevName
in the HDLM
view
command operation has
been changed from the HDLM device (
dlmfdrv
n) to hdisk. Accompanying this
change,
Device
for displaying hdisk name when
view -lu
or
view -drv
is
executed in HDLM version 5.8.1 or earlier has been removed.
„ Because
dlmfdrv
was deleted, the following HDLM utilities are no longer
provided and the descriptions related to them have been deleted from the manual:
• Utilities for operating HDLM volume groups
HDLM version 5.9 or later uses standard AIX commands that correspond to
the commands for utilities for operating HDLM volume groups. Table
Table B-1: Commands of the utilities for operating HDLM volume groups,
and corresponding AIX commands lists the correspondence between the
