When you are using a logical volume (LVM2) on the HDLM device as a boot disk

To update a kernel package or apply an OS update package when a logical volume (LVM2) on an HDLM device is used as the boot disk:

1. Copy the following files into a directory:

   • /etc/opt/DynamicLinkManager/.dlmfdrv.conf

   • /etc/opt/DynamicLinkManager/.dlmfdrv.unconf^#

   #

   If this file does not exist, you do not have to copy it into a directory.

2. Remove HDLM.

   For details on HDLM removal, see Removing HDLM.

3. Update the kernel package or apply the OS update package.

4. Install HDLM.

   For details on HDLM installation, see Installing HDLM for managing boot disks.

   Also, replace step 10 in Performing a new installation of HDLM with the following:

   • Copy the files acquired from before HDLM was removed (.dlmfdrv.conf and .dlmfdrv.unconf) into the directory /etc/opt/DynamicLinkManager.

     Go to step 13 to reboot the host.
