Viewing and resetting file-recall counters

Use the HSM for Windows client GUI to view live file-recall counters. You can reset file recall counters.

Before you begin

The IBM® TSM HSM Recall Service must be running. If the IBM TSM HSM Recall Service is not running, live quota information is not available.

About this task

Live quota information is periodically refreshed. You can change the frequency at which the view is refreshed in Tools > Preferences > Recall Service.

Procedure

  1. Select Tools > Recall Quotas to open the Recall Quotas window.
  2. Select the Live Quotas tab.
  3. Filter the user accounts by domain and user name.
    1. In the Look in list, select a domain.
    2. In the Filter field, type a user account name pattern. You can use wildcard characters asterisk (*) and question mark (?).
    3. Click Refresh.
    The file recall counter and quota are displayed for user accounts for which all of the following are true:
    • The user account is found in the domain.
    • The user name matches the filter.
    • The file recall quota for the user account is finite and greater than 0.
    • The file recall counter for the user account is greater than 0. After you change a quota definition, live-quota information for the user account is not displayed until the user recalls a file.
    The live quota information is of the format 1 of 3 recalls, where 1 is the recall counter and 3 is the recall quota. The recall counter indicates the file recalls that are within the time span that is defined for the quota. The file recall counter changes as the user recall files and as the time-span window changes. The button name changes from Refresh to Pause.
  4. Optional: Click Pause. Live updates are paused.
  5. Optional: Select a user account and click Reset Counter. The file recall counter is reset to 0 for the user account.
  6. Optional: Select a different domain or a different name filter. When live updates are refreshed, user accounts that match the domain and name criteria are displayed.
