8.3 Unlocking the PVL Drives
As a default, all newly configured drives are locked. They must be unlocked before the PVL can use
them. Refer to Section Section 5.5.1: Unlocking a Drive on page 102 of the HPSS Management Guide
for more information.
8.4 Creating HPSS Storage Space
Adding storage space in HPSS is done in two distinct phases: import and create. The first phase,
import, involves physically introducing the tape cartridges and the disk volumes into the PVL and
labeling them with HPSS volume labels. The second phase, create, defines the Storage Server data
structures that will describe the data stored on the imported volumes.
Refer to Section 3.1: Creating HPSS Storage Space (page 53) in the HPSS Management Guide for more
information on creating HPSS storage space.
8.5 Create Additional HPSS Users
Refer to Section 8.1.1: Adding HPSS Users on page 215 of the HPSS Management Guide for more
information on how to create additional HPSS users.
8.6 Creating File Families
Refer to Section 6.7.4: File Family Configuration (page 322) for more information on how to create
file families.
8.7 Creating Filesets and Junctions
SSM can be used to create XDSM/HPSS (which includes both DFS/HPSS and XFS/HPSS) and
HPSS-only filesets. SSM can also be used to create the junctions that link the filesets to the HPSS
name space.
Before creating XDSM/HPSS filesets, DFS must already be configured (if it is to be used), and
the procedures to set up the DFS and XFS filesets and file systems must already be performed.
Refer to Section 7.6: HDM Configuration on page 435 for more information.
Ensure that the Name Server and the DMAP Gateway are up and running before creating the
filesets and junctions. Also ensure that SSM is connected to both of the servers.
