8.4.2 Parameter

-r [persistent-reservation-key-to-be-specified-by-user][-s]
Specify this parameter when you register a persistent reservation key.

persistent-reservation-key-to-be-specified-by-user
A maximum of 16 hexadecimal alphanumeric digits can be specified.
  • If this parameter is omitted, or the dlmprsvkey utility is automatically executed during HDLM installation:
    The dlmprsvkey utility for registering the HDLM persistent reservation key creates a persistent reservation key by using the MAC address of the NIC and the execution time of the utility. If the MAC address of the NIC cannot be obtained, the dlmprsvkey utility creates a persistent reservation key by using the execution time of the utility only.
  • If this parameter is specified:
    If a value less than 16 digits is specified, zeros are added to the left of the entered value to make up the 16 digits. The specified value must satisfy both of the following conditions:
    - Must be a unique value for hosts in SAN.
    - Specifiable values are single-byte characters from 0 to 9, a to f, and A to F. Values cannot be specified using zeroes only.

Example
In the following example, the utility registers the PRSV key without specifying it on the host:
>dlmprsvkey -r
KAPL12104-I  The operation for PRSV key registration will now start. Is this OK? [y/n]: y
KAPL12106-I  An attempt to register the PRSV key was successful. (PRSV key = 0123456789abcdef)
In the following example, the utility registers the PRSV key by specifying it on the host:
>dlmprsvkey -r 0123456789ABCDEF
KAPL12104-I  The operation for PRSV key registration will now start. Is this OK? [y/n]: y
KAPL12106-I  An attempt to register the PRSV key was successful. (PRSV key = 0123456789abcdef)

-s
Specify this parameter to display no confirmation message on execution of the dlmprsvkey utility.

-v
Specify this parameter to display the registered persistent reservation key.

Example
>dlmprsvkey -v
KAPL12116-I  The registered PRSV key will now be displayed. (PRSV key = 0123456789abcdef)

-h
Displays the help of this utility.

None
Displays the alert message.
