The fse --stopcommand executes the pre_stop script, if it exists. It also performs the following, depending on where it is run:

When used on a consolidated system or an external FSE client, the command unmounts all local mounted HSM file systems.

It terminates the respective consolidated FSE system, FSE server or FSE client operation by shutting down all locally running FSE processes on the belonging host.

4.Disable automatic mounting of local HSM file systems after subsequent restarts of the local FSE processes by commenting out the HSM file system entries in the file /etc/fstab.

For each such entry, add a hash characters followed by a single space at the beginning of the corresponding line, for example:

# /dev/mapper/vg_fsefs-fsefs_01

/fse/fsefs_01

hsmfs noauto 0 2

5.If you are uninstalling a consolidated FSE system or an FSE server, stop the omniNames daemon. The command and its output is shown below:

# omninames --stop

Stopping omniORB Naming Service

[ OK ]

6.Run the following command to remove all FSE packages from the system:

# rpm -e `rpm -qa grep "^fse-" grep -v fse-gui`

7.If FSE hot fixes have been installed, manually remove the backups of the original FSE release or FSE system maintenance release files from their backup location, the backup directory itself, and the hot fix ReadMe files from the /opt/fse/doc directory.

For details on FSE hot fixes, see appendix ”FSE system maintenance releases and hot fixes” on page 73.

8.The uninstallation process leaves the FSE databases and system files intact, and you must remove them manually.

CAUTION: Note that manual removal of the FSE databases and system files will permanently delete information about the FSE configuration and resources, and metadata of the FSE user files.

The set of entities that require manual removal depends on which FSE host is being uninstalled. Proceed as follows:

a.If there were separate file systems mounted for the FSE partition-specific files (to the directory /var/opt/fse/part) and the FSE log and debug files (to the directory /var/opt/fse/log), remove all directories and files from them, and then unmount them using the umount command.

b.Disable automatic mounting of these file systems by commenting out their file system entries in the file /etc/fstab, like you did in the step 2 for HSM file systems.

c.Remove the following entities by deleting the corresponding directories using the rm -rcommand:

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.
