Changes since 4.5

Server GUI ADM

 

 

The HPSS 4.5 hpssadm commands

n

pvr_cartridge

 

pvl_volume

 

ss_pv

 

ss_map

 

ss_vv

 

have been replaced by a single command "volume". The volume command has a required option "-type" for which these types may be specified:

PVL Volume Information

 

PVR Cartridge Information

 

CS Disk Volume

 

CS Tape Volume

 

The new volume command behaves similarly to the config command,

 

where the types are the titles of the window screens for the structures. The

 

type names may be abbreviated so long as the abbreviation is unique.

 

The volume command has several subcommands which support displaying

 

and updating the volume, importing and exporting volumes, creating and

 

deleting resources, and moving cartridges.

 

There is no longer a separate command for locking or unlocking a volume

 

in 6.2. This has been replaced by the practice of setting the VV Condition

 

and Retired fields structure on the storage map in the disk or tape volume

 

structure. (This is a core server design change.) The fields of the map

 

structure may be modified with the update command. The update

 

command may also be used on any of the volume commands to modify any

 

settable field.

 

A new hpssadm command "ssm" is supplied in 6.2 for shutting down the

n

System Manager and for displaying the status of the System Manager and

 

of the hpssadm session.

 

 

 

All available columns of each SSM list (server, device, storage class, pvl

n

job, alarm) are now displayed by the hpssadm list commands in the system

 

default order. At this time hpssadm has no facility for customizing the list

 

format as the gui does.

 

Field layout and grouping for each structure displayed by the hpssadm now

n

matches the order and grouping used by the corresponding window of the

 

SSM GUI.

 

 

Most hpss structures have changed so hpssadm scripts used before 5.1 may

n

need to be modified to use the new field and subfield names.
