10.2. Creating an HPSS Fileset
This section provides information on how to create HPSS filesets. Only the HPSS root user and SSM
principal are allowed to create filesets.
In order to successfully perform fileset administration, the DB2 Helper Program must be bound.
See the HPSS Installation Guide, Section 5.8.1.3 Generate and Bind the DB2 Helper Program
for more information.
An HPSS fileset can be created by using the Create Fileset SSM window, or by using the
create_fset utility. Refer to the create_fset man page for more information.
SSM automatically generates a fileset ID for the new fileset.
After a fileset has successfully been created, a junction will need to be created to get to the new fileset
name space from the root node fileset name space.
10.2.1. Create Fileset Window
The Create Fileset window is used to create new HPSS filesets.
To open the window, from the HPSS Health and Status window Monitor menu select Filesets &
Junctions to display the Filesets & Junctions List, then press the Create Fileset button.
After creating a new HPSS fileset, a new junction will be needed to connect this new fileset to the HPSS
name space. See Section 10.5 Creating a Junction on page 315 for more information.
