Changes since 4.5 Server GUI ADM
The HPSS 4.5 hpssadm commands
• 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have been replaced by a single command "volume".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 This has been replaced by the practice of setting the VV Condition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
System Manager and for displaying the status of the System Manager and
of the hpssadm session.
n
All available columns of each SSM list (server, device, storage class, pvl
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.
n
Field layout and grouping for each structure displayed by the hpssadm now
matches the order and grouping used by the corresponding window of the
SSM GUI.
n
Most hpss structures have changed so hpssadm scripts used before 5.1 may
need to be modified to use the new field and subfield names.
