2.1.3OPTIONS

•– –start

This option has different effects depending on whether the fse command is executed in a consolidated FSE implementation, in a distributed FSE imple- mentation on an FSE server, or in a distributed FSE implementation on an FSE client.

If used on a consolidated FSE system, the – –startoption:

1.initiates omniNames – the omniORB naming service daemon, if it is not running yet,

2.initiates the FSE operation starting up all FSE processes (see FSE PROCESSES for details on FSE processes),

3.mounts all existing HSM file systems with an entry in the /etc/fstab file (on Linux systems),

4.executes the post–startscript, if it exists (see POST–START AND PRE–STOP SCRIPTS for details on the post–start script).

If used on FSE server in a distributed FSE implementation, it:

1.initiates omniNames – the omniORB naming service daemon, if it is not running yet,

2.initiates the FSE server operation starting up all FSE server processes (see FSE PROCESSES for details on FSE server processes),

3.executes the post–startscript, if it exists.

If used on FSE client in a distributed FSE implementation, it:

1.initiates the FSE client operation starting up all FSE client processes (see FSE PROCESSES for details on FSE client processes),

2.mounts all existing HSM file systems with an entry in the /etc/fstab file (on Linux systems),

3.executes the post–startscript, if it exists.

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.
