Service (S+C),

Resource Manager (S),

Management Interface (S),

File System Event Manager(C).

... there is one File System Event Manager running on each FSE client host. It controls an arbitrary number of HSM file systems that reside on the same FSE client host.

Configuration–dependent FSE processes:

Partition Manager (S),

Back End Agent (S),

Library Agent (S).

fse status prints info on the configuration–independent FSE processes only. For each FSE daemon fse status prints its binary name, its current status (running, stopped) and the associated process ID(s). If the command is executed on FSE server (FSE client) it only prints info on the FSE server (FSE client) daemons. The daemon binary names are listed in the following table.

POST–START AND PRE–STOP SCRIPTS FSE administrator can set up two helper scripts which perform certain automated tasks at the FSE system’s (FSE server’s, FSE client’s) start–up and shut–down time. They are executed by the fse command.

Both helper scripts have to be placed in the /opt/fse/sbin (on Linux systems) or %InstallPath%\bin directory (on Windows systems) on a local machine, and have to be named as specified below:

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.
