NTFS, and thus gain control over it. Note that the fse – –dismount–ntfscommand will fail in case the volume is in use, that is, when some pro- cesses have open handles on it.

–limit–access

Windows systems only: Switch the HSM FS filter operation for manag- ing accesses to the volume VolumeName from Full Access Mode to Limited Access Mode. In this mode, modifications on the corresponding HSM file system are not allowed. The volume remains mounted to its mount point, fse–hsm continues to run for the HSM file system and online files are still migrated and released. Recalls of offline files are denied. When an of- fline file is accessed while the HSM file system operates in Limited Access Mode, the application that is accessing the file receives an error and the file is not recalled. For more information on Limited Access Mode, see the FSE user guide.

–full–access

Windows systems only: Switch the HSM FS filter operation for manag- ing accesses to the volume VolumeName from Limited Access Mode to Full Access Mode. This change is possible only if the corresponding fse–hsm process is running and the HSM file system on the volume operates in Lim- ited Access Mode. For more information on Full Access Mode, see the FSE user guide.

–list–volumes

Windows systems only: Enumerate all volumes on the local system and report their states with respect to the FSE implementation. Reported infor- mation for a volume includes:

1.Volume ID ..... ID string of the volume,

2.Status ........ current volume status,

3.Mount point ... volume mount point.

See section VOLUME STATES ON WINDOWS SYSTEMS for descrip- tion of the volume states.

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.
