Chapter 6 HPSS Configuration
348 September 2002 HPSS Installation Guide
Release 4.5, Revision 2
Port Range Start The beginning of a range
of local TCP/IP port
numbers to be used by the
Mover when connecting to
clients (required by some
sites for communication
across a firewall). If zero,
the operating system will
select the port number;
otherwise the Mover
selects a local port number
between Port Range Start
and Port Range End
(inclusive).
Zero or any valid TCP port number
to which the Mover may bind (that
is less than or equal to the value of
Port Range End).
0
Advice: If non-zero, this field must be less than or equal to Port Range End. If this
field is zero, Port Range End field must also be zero.
Port Range End Used in conjunction with
Port Range Start (See
above).
Zero or any valid TCP port number
to which the Mover may bind (that
is greater than or equal to the value
of Port Range Start).
0
Advice: If non-zero, this field must be equal or greater than Port Range Start. If this
field is zero, Port Range Start field must also be zero.
Hostname The name of the host
interface used by the
TCP/IP listen process.
Valid host name for the network
interfaces on the MVR machine.
Extracted
from the
MVR general
configuration
entry.
Advice: If the Mover is running in non-DCE mode, this field must correspond to a
network interface on the non-DCE/Encina node (to which the Storage Servers and
PVL will connect when communicating with the Mover, see Section 6.8.8.2: MVR
Configuration to Support Non-DCE Execution Mode on page 349), whereas the
Execute Hostname set in the Mover’s basic configuration corresponds to a network
interface on which the Mover DCE/Encina processes run.
Data Hostname The host network interface
name to be used by the
Mover when creating
listen ports for data
transfers (used during
migration, repacking, and
staging operations).
Valid host name for the network
interfaces on the MVR machine.
Extracted
from the
MVR general
configuration
entry.
Advice: If the Mover is running in non-DCE mode, this field must correspond to a
network interface on the non-DCE/Encina node (see Section 6.8.8.2: MVR
Configuration to Support Non-DCE Execution Mode on page 349).
