HCP System Management Help


What you need to know

When you add an HCP S Series Node to your HCP system, HCP automatically creates a storage component, a storage pool (if an S Series Node storage pool doesn’t already exist), and a bucket. At the same time, the S Series Node creates a user account. The user account is granted permission to manage buckets and storage pools.

Bucket created on HCP system

The bucket HCP automatically creates when you add an S Series Node can be used only by that HCP system. The name of this bucket is:

hcpsrv-hcp-system-name

If a bucket with that name already exists (which can happen if the S Series Node is added to the HCP system a second time), HCP creates a new bucket named:

hcpsrv-hcp-system-name0

Subsequently, each time HCP automatically creates a new bucket on the S Series Node, HCP either increments the numeric suffix on the bucket name by one or reuses an earlier name from a deleted HCP-created bucket.

User account created on the HCP S Series Node

The user account HCP creates when you add an S Series Node is:

hcpsrv-hcp-system-name

If a user account with that username already exists (which can happen if the S Series Node is added to the HCP system a second time), HCP creates a new user account with the username:

hcpsrv-hcp-system-name0

Subsequently, each time HCP needs to create a new user account on the S Series Node, HCP either increments the numeric suffix on the username by one or reuses an earlier username from a deleted HCP-created account.
