Modification of NFS metadata. In support of new authentication mechanisms, elimination of credential object Id. Change privileged caller principal length from 15 to 255 characters. NFS is no longer supported. The NFS table contains converted metadata, but will be renamed to PRE62_NFS to prevent use.

Modification of server metadata. In support of new HPSS RPC library, elimination of authorization service and authentication service information. Addition of request queue size information and RPC program and version number information. In support of new HPSS authentication and authorization mechanisms, addition of authentication mechanism information.

New SERVERINTERFACES table.

Modification of site metadata. The conversion utilities do not convert remote site metadata because remote sites are no longer supported. The conversion will create a new empty SITE table in DB2.

From 5.1 to 6.2:

New AUTHZACL table. This table contains authorized interfaces to servers. The table allows a server to determine whether a client with a certain authorization mechanism (Unix or LDAP) may connect to its interface. This table is populated by the hpss_init_server_acls conversion program.

DISKSPACE table is no longer used in 6.2. The core server now uses in-memory disk maps rather than the metadata in this 5.1 DB2 table.

Modification of DMG table. In support of the new HPSS RPC library: TCP port has been eliminated; Program and Version numbers to the DMG specific configuration have been added. The metadata is converted by the hpss_51_62_dmg conversion program.

Modification of DMGFILESET table. In support of new HPSS RPC library, elimination of TCP port and TCP hostname and addition of RPC endpoint information. The metadata is converted by the hpss_51_62_dmgfileset conversion program.

Modification of GATEKEEPER table. In support of new HPSS RPC library, change length of site policy pathname from 127 to 1023 characters. The metadata is converted by the hpss_51_62_gatekeeper conversion program.

Modification of LSPOLICY table. In support of new HPSS RPC library, elimination of group name and addition of realm name. Change length of local site name from 31 to 255 characters. The metadata is converted by the hpss_51_62_lspolicy conversion program.

Modification of MOVERDEVICE table. In support of new SAN3P capabilities, addition of SanID to mover device configuration. Since new to HPSS 6.2, these will be set to 0 for all mover devices. The metadata is converted by the hpss_51_62_moverdevice conversion program.

NDCG table now obsolete, renamed to PRE62_NDCG to prevent use, but left intact
