Cluster Software
Supported by HDLM
When you use HDLM in a cluster configuration, you must install the same
version of HDLM on all of the nodes that make up the cluster. If different
versions of HDLM are installed, the cluster system might not operate
correctly. If HDLM Version and Service Pack Version, which you can display
by executing the following command, are the same, then the HDLM versions
are also the same:
# /opt/DynamicLinkManager/bin/dlnkmgr view -sys
