Store the license key file directly under the

dlm.lic_key

files are deleted after

installation finishes successfully.

When installing HDLM on an alternate disk from the DVD-ROM

# alt_disk_copy -d

hdisk-name

hdisk-name

... -w

DLManager.mpio.rte -l /

When installing HDLM onto an alternate disk from the directory to which

the DVD-ROM was copied

# alt_disk_copy -d
