menu, select the Configure HPSS option and click on the Servers option. The HPSS Servers
window will be displayed as shown in Figure 6-5 on page 264.
To add a new specific configuration, select the Log Client entry and click on the Type-specific...
button from the Configuration button group on the HPSS Servers window. The Logging Client
Configuration window will be displayed as shown in Figure 6-23 on page 334 with default values.
If the default data is not desired, change the fields with the desired values. Click on the Add button
to create the configuration entry.
To update an existing configuration, select the Log Client entry on the HPSS Servers window and

Default
Wait Time
The default number of seconds the
client will wait before retrying a
request if not determined by the
Site Interface.
The value must be
greater than zero and is
only used if the Site
Interface returns a wait
time of zero for the
create, open, or stage
request being retried.

Note: The Client API uses the environment variable HPSS_GKTOTAL_DELAY to
place a maximum limit on the number of seconds a call will delay because of
HPSS_ERETRY status codes returned from the Gatekeeper. See Section 7.1: Client
API Configuration on page 413 for more information.
