- Hitachi Content Platform (HCP) is a distributed storage system designed to support large, growing repositories of fixed-content data.
- Tenant and namespace properties
- No image available
- Tenants and namespaces have certain properties that affect how they operate. Some of these properties are set when the tenant or namespace is created. Others are set after creation. Some can be modified after they are initially set; others cannot.
- General administrative information
- No image available
- As an HCP tenant administrator, you are responsible for managing a tenant and the namespaces it owns. Your primary job is to ensure that users and applications have the access they need to those namespaces.
- Managing accounts
- No image available
- As a tenant security administrator, you are responsible for creating and managing tenant-level user and group accounts. These accounts give users permission to use the Tenant Management Console and HCP management API and to access namespace content through namespace access protocols that require authentication, the Namespace Browser, the HCP metadata query API, and the HCP Search Console. These accounts also determine which actions the user is allowed to perform through the applicable interface.
- Managing the current tenant
- No image available
- When you log into the Tenant Management Console, you do so for a particular tenant. You can then view all the available information about that tenant, change certain of its properties, and monitor its activity.
- Managing namespaces
- No image available
- When a tenant is first created, it has no namespaces. You use the Tenant Management Console to create them as needed.
- Managing search and indexing
- No image available
- You manage search and indexing for namespaces at both the tenant and namespace level. At the tenant level, you create content classes and content properties. At the namespace level, you enable search and indexing options.
- Working with retention classes
- No image available
- Retention classes provide a means to consistently manage data that must remain in a namespace for a specific amount of time. For example, if local law requires that medical records be kept for a specified number of years, you can use a retention class to enforce that requirement.
- Using privileged delete
- No image available
- Namespaces in enterprise mode support privileged delete operations.
- Downloading the HCP Data Migrator installation file
- No image available
- HCP Data Migrator (HCP-DM) is a high-performance, multithreaded, client-side utility for viewing, copying, and deleting data. You download the utility from the Tenant Management Console.
- Tenant Management Console alerts
- No image available
- The Tenant Management Console uses icons to report tenant and namespace status on the tenant Overview, Namespaces, and Search pages and on the namespace Overview panel. The Console also uses icons to report conflicting user accounts on the Users page. These icons, called alerts, are accompanied by text on the tenant Overview page and namespace Overview panel. On all pages on which they appear, alerts have text that???s displayed when you hover over them.
- Tenant log messages
- No image available
- The tenant log contains messages about events that happen at the tenant and namespace levels. The table in this appendix lists the messages HCP can write to the tenant log. The messages are listed in order by event ID.
- Browser configuration for single sign-on with Active Directory
- No image available
- If a tenant is configured to support AD authentication, you can use a recognized AD user account to access the Tenant Management Console with single sign-on. However, for this to work, the web browser you use to access the Console must be configured to support single sign-on.
