The High Performance Storage System (HPSS) is available on all OCF (CZ/RZ) and SCF production systems. Each user has a storage account with passwordless access from LC systems. The EZSTORAGE manual provides an overview of tools for storing and archiving files. Consult the HPSS website for details of the storage system and its specialized features.
HPSS can be accessed using one of the following interfaces:
