Problem installing the software HDLM

UNIX Solaris
1

I'm trying to install the software HDLM (Hitachi Dynamic Link Manager) and is presenting the following message:

-Bash-3.00 #./Installhdlm

In KAPL09187-W parameter is specified.

I do not know which parameter is that?

2

what does

# ./Installhdlm -?

give?

also google gaves me this:

I presume there is not actually a space between the

./

and the

Installhdlm

?

I do not know the product but assume that Installhdlm is a script, run:

# file ./Installhdlm

The response will tell you what type of file it is, if it is a script, then run:

# more ./Installhdlm

to confirm what shell it is written for, you should see something like:

#!/bin/sh

or

#!/usr/bin/ksh

at the top which determines what shell it is run in.

Whatever the shell is try running:

/bin/sh -x ./Installhdlm

Replacing /bin/sh with the script in the file. This will hopefully show you what the script is doing, you can then see where KAPL09187-W comes from and what it is being handed as a parameter to!

If you are not comfortable with doing all this then you are just as well talking to Hitachi about it...

I think the parameter is in reference to the "parameters file" used during the installation process.

an example of this file is

[INSTALLATION_SETTINGS]
installfile_location=/cdrom/cdrom0
logdir=/var/tmp
licensekeyfile=/var/tmp/hdlm_license
driver_config=y
restart=n
[ENVIRONMENT_SETTINGS]
load_balance=on
load_balance_type=exlio
error_log_level=3
error_log_size=9900
error_log_number=2
trace_level=0
trace_file_size=1000
trace_file_number=4
path_health_check=on
path_health_check_interval=30
auto_failback=on
auto_failback_interval=1
intermittent_error_monitor=off
#intermittent_error_monitor_interval=30
#intermittent_error_monitor_number=3

You should edit your parameter file to point to yours paths

and after execute

./installhdlm -f  /path/parameters-file

I hope this be useful
