2.3.2DESCRIPTION

COMMON USAGE fsebak command affects the core FSE components. Its primary usage is from inside the fsebackup command and not as a stand–alone tool, except on request of the FSE support personnel. In case of the latter, it should be used with a maximum care as its usage can lead to improper FSE system operation or no operation at all.

INTERNAL COMMAND OPERATION fsebak prepares Hierarchical Stor- age Management Databases (HSMDB) and File System Catalogs (FSC) of all configured FSE partitions for an eventual back–up procedure. To achieve such a database consistency, operation of all currently running Partition Managers has to be temporarily suspended. Duplicate copies of HSMDBs and FSCs may then be created using other system commands. After a successful back–up creation Par- tition Managers are unblocked using fsebak once again. This action restores the normal FSE system operation.

Each FSE command communicates with the FSE system components through the Management Interface (fse–mif). To execute an FSE command, the Management

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.
