Chapter 6 HPSS Configuration
262 September 2002 HPSS Installation Guide
Release 4.5, Revision 2
6.5 Basic Server Configuration
All HPSS servers use a similar metadata structure for the basic server configuration. A basic server
configuration entry must be created for each of the following server types:
• Bitfile Server
• DMAP Gateway
• Gatekeeper Server
• HPSS Startup Daemon
• Location Server
• Log Client
• Log Daemon
• Metadata Monitor
• Migration/Purge Server
• Mover
• Name Server
• NFS Daemon
• NFS Mount Daemon
• Non-DCE Client Gateway
• Physical Volume Library
• Physical Volume Repository
• Storage Server
Before configuring the HPSS servers, the planning guidelines for the HPSS servers as described in
Section 2.6: HPSS Server Considerations on page 62 should be carefully considered.
The SSM System Manager basic configuration entry is usually created when the server is started
up for the first time using the environment variables defined by the /opt/hpss/config/hpss_env
script. If the default values are not appropriate for the site's configuration, the administrator
should modify them using the Basic Server Configuration window described in the following
section and restart the System Manager rather than re-create a new entry. It is recommended that only one
SSM System Manager configuration entry be created to avoid possible loss of communication between the
HPSS servers and SSM.
