Uninstalling HDLM in a non-clustered environment

To uninstall HDLM in a non-clustered environment, perform the following steps. Refer to HDLM documentation for details:

  1. Log on to Windows as a member of the Administrators group.
  2. Stop all the processes and services that use the HDLM management-target paths.

    Stop any processes or application services, such as a DBMS, that are using the HDLM management-target paths.

    In Windows Server 2008, if you are not logged on as an administrator, use the Run as administrator functionality.

  3. If the host and the storage subsystem are connected via multiple paths, reconfigure it so that only one path connects the host to the storage subsystem.

    After uninstalling HDLM, if you start the host in a multi-path configuration, the disk contents might become corrupted.

  4. Start the uninstallation procedure.
  5. When uninstallation finishes, a dialog box appears prompting you to restart the host.

    Click OK to restart the host.

  6. Now, install the Dynamic Multi-Pathing (DMP) .

See Installing the server components using the installation wizard.
