„
When a device is dynamically configured by using the udev function, the
messages shown below might be output to the console or syslog. However,
HDLM operations are not affected.
Output example:
scsi_id[
a01
]: scsi_id: unable to access parent device of '/
block/sddlma01'
For a01 in the above examples, any alphanumeric character can be output.
„
When using an HDLM device as a boot disk in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5, if you
install or uninstall a product that uses the weak-modules script, an error might
occur. For details, see B. Troubleshooting Products That Use the Weak-Modules
Script .
„
When changing the HBA, and then restarting the host in Red Hat Enterprise Linux
5 or Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6, if you execute the
dlmcfgmgr
utility
(
dlmcfgmgr -v
), a hyphen (-) might appear in the
Device
column of the
execution result.
To avoid this, execute the
dlmcfgmgr
utility with the
-u
parameter specified.
For details on the
dlmcfgmgr
utility, see 7.3 dlmcfgmgr Utility for Managing the
HDLM Configuration .

SCSI devices corresponding to an HDLM device can be removed dynamically
even while the HDLM device is in use. Before doing so, perform the following

Unmount any devices mounted on the HDLM device.
2. Execute the
dlmcfgmgr -o
command to exclude the HDLM device from
management.

HDLM devices cannot be used to create an md device.

If you execute the
sync
command on the file system that is mounted by ext3/
ReiserFS, the following message is output to syslog, but there is no problem with
HDLM operations.
