If you specify the name of a logical device file of an HDLM device at host startup, an HDLM-managed device is automatically mounted in the same way as if you had specified the name of a logical device file of a SCSI device. To mount an HDLM-managed device automatically, you need to edit the /etc/fstab file. In this file, you can specify the name of the logical device file of the SCSI device and the mount point of its disk. After this file has been created, the specified HDLM-managed device is mounted automatically when Linux is started. Linux functionality for specifying a file system to be mounted by using LABEL or UUID instead of using a device is not supported by HDLM. Do not use this functionality.
The following subsections describe the tasks that are required for using HDLM.
