HP StorageWorks Auto Path XP for AIX V04.40-/B Installation Guide (B7949-96009, November 2004)
Installation 19
8. Execute the Auto Path configuration manager command:
# dlmcfgmgr
9. Verify that the Auto Path subsystem (DLMManager) is active:
# lssrc –a | grep DLMManager
A system reboot also activates the Auto Path subsystem.
10. Verify that the Auto Path drivers (dlmfdrvn) and alert driver (dlmadrv)
are installed on an active kernel and available.
Example
# lsdev -C | grep dlm
dlmfdrv0 Available HDLM Driver
dlmadrv Available HDLM Alert Driver
. . .
dlmfdrv1 Available HDLM Driver
dlmfdrvio Available HDLM Driver
In this example:
dlmadrv is the special file name of the Auto Path alert driver.
dlmfdrvio is the driver instance for internally managing Auto Path.
dlmfdrv0 and dlmfdrv1 are the special file names of Auto Path
drivers. Each driver instance represents all paths to the same LU. The
Auto Path driver name does not relate to the hdisk or LU names. The
instances start with dlmfdrv0 and increment sequentially.
Verify that all Auto Path drivers representing the disk array LUNs you
want recognized are displayed. If one or more drivers are not
displayed, AIX error information is logged to the following file:
/var/DynamicLinkManager/log/dlmcfgmgr1.log. For details about
the log file, see the AIX documentation.
11. Create a volume group.
To specify a physical volume group, specify the Auto Path device
representing the LU.
Example If hdisk4, hdisk5 and hdisk6 are in the same LU and represented by
Auto Path device file dlmfdrv1:
# dlmmkvg -s 32 -y dlmvg01 dlmfdrv1
