2.10.3OPTIONS

–a ,–add

Configure a new FSE Partition with parameters, written in the configura- tion file ConfigFileName . This action checks the validity of the configura- tion file, copies the file to Configuration Database and inserts the parame- ter values into Resource Management Database. FSE partition names are unique within one FSE system. A new Partition Manager for this partition is started after the validation checks pass. Partition Manager is one of the configuration–dependent FSE processes in the FSE system. It is responsible for managing the data flow between HSM file system and FSE media in the FSE media pools that belong to this FSE partition.

ConfigFileName

The name of the FSE partition configuration file to use.

–r ,–remove

Remove an existing FSE partition from the FSE system. This includes shut- down of Partition Manager for this partition and removal of:
