Preface Who Should Read This Book The HPSS Management Guide is intended as a resource for HPSS administrators. For those performing the initial configuration for a new HPSS system, Chapter 1 provides a configuration roadmap. For both new systems and those upgraded from a previous release, Chapter 1 provides a configuration, operational, and performance checklist which should be consulted before bringing the system into production. The remaining chapters contain the details for configuring,

Chapter 1. HPSS 7.1 Configuration Overview 1.1. Introduction This chapter defines the high-level steps necessary to configure, start, and verify correct operation of a new 7.1 HPSS system, whether that system is created from scratch or created by conversion from a 6.2 HPSS system. To create or modify the HPSS configuration, we recommend that the administrator first be familiar with the information described in the HPSS Installation Guide, Chapter 2: HPSS Basics and Chapter 3: HPSS Planning.

listed. Each step is required unless otherwise indicated. Each step is discussed in more detail in the referenced section. 1. Configure storage subsystems (Section 4.2.2: Creating a New Storage Subsystem on page 76) Subsystems can be configured only partially at this time. The Gatekeeper, Default COS, and Allowed COS fields will be updated in a later step. 2. Configure HPSS storage policies · Accounting Policy (Section 13.2.1: on page 330) · Log Policies (Section 9.2: Log Policies on page 2

B. Create storage resources (Section 8.1.2: Creating Storage Resources on page 234) 4. Create additional HPSS Users (Section 13.1.1: Adding HPSS Users on page 325) 5. Create Filesets and Junctions (Section 10.1: Filesets & Junctions List on page 308 and Section 10.5: Creating a Junction on page 315) 6. Create HPSS /log Directory If log archiving is enabled, using an HPSS namespace tool such as scrub or ftp, create the /log directory in HPSS. This directory must be owned by hpsslog and have per

• Verify that a Core Server and Migration Purge Server have been configured for each storage subsystem. • Verify that each storage subsystem is accessible by using lsjunctions and ensuring that there is at least one junction to the Root fileset of each subsystem. (The root fileset for a given subsystem can be found in the specific configuration for the subsystem’s Core Server) Servers • Verify that all required HPSS servers are configured and running. • Verify that all servers are configured

chosen if specified by their COS ID. • Verify that classes of service with multiple copies have the Retry Stage Failures from Secondary Copy flag enabled. File Families, Filesets, and Junctions • Verify that file families and filesets are created according to the site’s requirements. • Verify that each fileset is associated with the appropriate file family and/or COS. • Verify that each fileset has an associated junction. User Interfaces • Verify that the desired HPSS user interfaces (FTP, PFTP

• Monitor free space from the top level storage class in each hierarchy to verify that the migration and purge policy are maintaining adequate free space. 1.6.3. Performance Checklist Measure data transfer rates in each COS for: • Client writes to disk • Migration from disk to tape • Staging from tape to disk • Client reads from disk Transfer rates should be close to the speed of the underlying hardware. The actual hardware speeds can be obtained from their specifications and by testing direct
