Communication Status: Normal
However, when the server is experiencing errors or encountering abnormal conditions, it will change the
appropriate states and statuses to error values, notify SSM of the changes, and issue an alarm to SSM.
Refer to Section 9.6.2: Alarm/Event Information on page 303 for more information.
The Startup Daemon and the System Manager do not have their own Basic Server Information
windows.
5.1.1. Specific Server Information
Using the Server Specific Information Windows
The majority of the HPSS servers also allow the SSM user to view and change their server specific data
through the SSM windows. A typical server allows authorized users to change the value of the fields and
use them immediately in the current execution.
There are server specific information windows for the following servers:
• Core Server
• Gatekeeper
• Location Server
• Migration/Purge Server
• Mover
• Physical Volume Library
• Physical Volume Repository
Any changes made on a server’s information window will be effective only during the server’s
current execution. To make the changes permanent, make the identical changes on the server’s
configuration window and restart the server (see Section 5.1:Server Configuration on page 87
and below).
If the server’s operational state is Broken or Unknown, the Specific Server Information window will not
be available for viewing.
The server specific information windows are described in detail below.
