HCP System Management Help
The protection, content verification, scavenging, compression, duplicate elimination, disposition, garbage collection, and storage tiering services run according to a schedule. A service schedule consists of periods of time during which one or more services are scheduled to run.
Within a time period, each scheduled service has a performance level of low, medium, or high. The performance level determines how much load the service puts on the HCP system. The higher the performance level, the greater the load.
HCP comes with a predefined service schedule named HCP Default Schedule. This schedule cannot be modified or deleted.
HCP SAIN systems with spindown storage come with an additional predefined schedule named HCP Spindown Schedule. This schedule is optimized for storage tiering service activity against spindown storage. The HCP Spindown Schedule is modifiable.
You can create as many other schedules as you want. However, only one schedule at a time can be active. At any time, you can change which schedule is active.
After creating a service schedule, you can modify or delete it. You can modify a schedule regardless of whether it’s active. You can delete a schedule only while it’s not active.

Note: Although you can modify or delete the HCP Spindown Schedule, this is not recommended because once the schedule is modified or deleted, you cannot restore it. Instead, create a new schedule based on the HCP Spindown Schedule and modify the new one. |
