Information pertaining to LUs to which the physical path accesses will be
defined in the HDLM driver configuration definition file (/kernel/drv/
dlmfdrv.conf). Do not edit this file.
11. Specify the devices that are to be excluded from management by HDLM,
if there are any.
This step is unnecessary if you want HDLM to manage all applicable
devices. Devices that cannot be managed by HDLM are automatically
removed from the HDLM driver configuration definition file. For details on
devices that cannot be managed by HDLM, see
Devices Managed by
HDLM on page 2-3.
To remove devices from HDLM management, edit the HDLM driver
unconfiguration definition file (/opt/DynamicLinkManager/config/
dlmfdrv.unconf).
For details on how to perform this setting, see
Using the HDLM Device
Unconfiguration Function When Performing a New Installation of HDLM on
page 3-72.
