Changes since 5.1 | Server | GUI | ADM |
|
|
|
|
The mechanism for selecting columns to be displayed in each list window |
| n |
|
has moved from the list's Preferences window to the "Column View" menu |
|
|
|
of the list window itself. See the description of the "Column View" menu |
|
|
|
item in Section 3.6: Common Window Elements of the HPSS Management |
|
|
|
Guide for details. |
|
|
|
Column ordering is now controlled solely by dragging columns to the |
| n |
|
desired location. The modified order is now preserved automatically in the |
|
|
|
user preferences across hpssgui restarts. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
List tables have a field that shows the number of displayed and total items |
| n |
|
in the list in the format X/Y where X is the number of items displayed and |
|
|
|
Y is the total number of items in the list. The field is left justified under |
|
|
|
the table. The X and Y values will differ if preferences are set to filter |
|
|
|
some items out of the list. |
|
|
|
The button panel to the right of the list can be hidden or displayed by |
| n |
|
clicking the tall, thin button between the list and button panel labeled ''. If |
|
|
|
the button is pressed when the panel is displayed, the button panel will |
|
|
|
hide, allowing more space for the list. The button panel may be re- |
|
|
|
displayed by pressing the '' button again. |
|
|
|
Sites which are converting from HPSS 5.1 should remove all old user |
| n |
|
preference files. New preference files will be created automatically for |
|
|
|
the user when he first logs in. The user will be required to reset any |
|
|
|
preference settings (i.e. preferences will not be converted). |
|
|
|
The System Manager connection indicator is not displayed on every |
| n |
|
window; it is only displayed on the Health and Status Window. |
|
|
|
When messages have been written to the status bar, the most recent |
| n |
|
messages can be viewed in the status bar's tooltip. Rolling the mouse over |
|
|
|
the status bar without clicking gives a tooltip that says, "Click mouse in |
|
|
|
status bar to view messages" if there are status messages to view. If there |
|
|
|
are no status messages then the tooltip says, "No status messages". This |
|
|
|
message stays up for about 4 seconds or until the user moves the mouse |
|
|
|
out of the status bar area. To view up to the last 30 |
|
|
|
(STATUS_MSG_MAX) messages that have been written to the status bar, |
|
|
|
click on the status bar. The tooltip that is displayed will show up to the last |
|
|
|
30 messages and will remain visible until the mouse is moved out of the |
|
|
|
status bar or for 10 minutes. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The list of volumes for import, export, resource deletes, and cartridge |
| n | n |
move operations may now be specified from an external input file as an |
|
|
|
alternative to building the list on the hpssgui screen or within the hpssadm |
|
|
|
operation. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
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. |
