the status information that is printed with the help of this option, see section

STATUS INFORMATION.

•– –enable–dbg

Enable debugging or change current settings for debugging of FSE pro- cesses according to the SysDbgLevel argument and the SysDbgFile, Sys-

DbgFlags and SysDbgHSMFS arguments, if they are speciﬁed by the FSE administrator. Usage of this option overrides current debugging settings in FSE tracing conﬁguration ﬁle (see section FILES), but its effect is limited to the period of time until FSE processes are stopped with the fse command (current FSE session). After the processes are restarted, the settings in FSE tracing conﬁguration ﬁle apply.

Note:

Usage of this option has no effect on debugging of the currently running Back End Agents. However, it has an effect on debugging of the Back End Agents which will be started later in current FSE session.

•SysDbgLevel

Debugging level identiﬁer whose value can be one of the following upper- case letters: L, N, A or D. The letters have the following meaning:

–L .......... Low debugging level. Specify that only the most important information should be logged in FSE debug ﬁles. This level of logging causes practically no debugging overhead and produces small debug ﬁles.

–N .......... Normal debugging level. Specify that information which is most frequently used for debugging should be logged.

–A .......... API debugging level. Specify that besides the most fre- quently used debugging information all API calls to third–party com- ponents (omniORB/CORBA, Firebird SuperServer) in the FSE imple- mentation should be logged.

–D .......... Detailed debugging level. Specify that all details of the FSE processes should be logged. This level of logging causes a noticeable

debugging overhead and produces a lot of debug output. This argu- ment can only be used in combination with the – –enable–dbgoption.

File System Extender (FSE) specifications

HP File System Extender (FSE) is a sophisticated solution designed to optimize data storage management for enterprises that deal with large volumes of unstructured data. This technology addresses the challenges of data growth and the need for effective data retention strategies, enabling organizations to store and manage their information more efficiently.

One of the main features of HP FSE is its ability to intelligently migrate data between primary and secondary storage. By utilizing policies that determine when to move infrequently accessed files to lower-cost storage environments, FSE helps reduce the strain on primary storage systems and saves on costs associated with high-performance storage solutions. This tiered approach to data management ensures that organizations can access the data they need quickly while still maintaining an efficient overall storage architecture.

Another notable characteristic of HP FSE is its seamless integration with existing storage infrastructures. The solution works with a variety of storage systems, allowing organizations to utilize their current investments without the need for significant changes to their infrastructure. This interoperability is powered by advanced technologies that facilitate data migration and retrieval, ensuring a smooth transition for organizations looking to optimize their storage strategies.

Additionally, HP FSE is equipped with robust reporting and analytics capabilities. This functionality provides organizations with insights into their storage usage, helping them understand data patterns and optimize their storage environments accordingly. By having visibility into which files are accessed most frequently and which are rarely used, organizations can make informed decisions on data retention policies and storage management.

Security is paramount in data management, and HP FSE addresses this concern by implementing advanced data protection features. This includes data encryption, secure access controls, and compliance with industry regulations, ensuring that sensitive information is safeguarded throughout its lifecycle.

Overall, HP File System Extender is a comprehensive data storage solution that combines intelligent data management, seamless integration, insightful analytics, and robust security features. By leveraging these capabilities, organizations can efficiently manage their unstructured data, lower costs, and enhance operational efficiency, making it an invaluable tool in today’s data-driven landscape.
