Chapter 6 HPSS Configuration
HPSS Installation Guide September 2002 289
Release 4.5, Revision 2
6.6.3 Configure the Accounting Policy
The accounting policy defines how each HPSS user account will be charged for using HPSS
resources. Refer to Section 2.8.3 for more information on setting and using the Accounting Policy.
An accounting policy can be created using the Accounting Policy window. After the configuration
entry is created, it can be viewed, updated, or deleted through the same window.
From the HPSS Health and Status window (shown in Figure 6-1), click on the Admin menu, select
the Configure HPSS option and click on the Accounting Policy option.
The Accounting Policy window will be displayed as shown in Figure 6-9. Since only one
Accounting Policy can be configured, the fields are displayed with default values for a new policy
if one does not exist. Otherwise the fields will be displayed with data from the configured policy.
To add a new policy, change the default fields with the desired values and click on the Add button
to create the configuration entry.
To update an existing policy, modify the policy data and click on the Update button to write the
changes to the SFS file.
To delete the existing policy, click on the Delete button to delete the policy.
Refer to the window’s help file for more information on the individual fields and buttons as well as
the supported operations available from the window.
