This project consists of four parts:
- Lightweight TSM API/library (called tsmapi) supporting operations (archiving, retrieving, deleting, querying).
- Lustre TSM Copytool.
- TSM console client.
- Benchmark and test suite.
Lustre has since version 2.5 hierarchical storage management (HSM) capabilities, that is, data can be automatically
archived to low-cost storage media such as tape storage systems and seamlessly retrieved when accessing the data on Lustre clients. The Lustre HSM capabilities can be illustrated by means of state diagrams and the related Lustre commands
lfs hsm_archive, lfs hsm_release, lfs hsm_restore as depicted below.
The initial state is a new file. Once the file is archived, it
changes into state archived and a identical copy exists on the HSM storage. If the archived file is modified, then the state
changes to dirty. As a consequence, one has to re-archive the file to reobtain an identical copy on the Lustre side as well
as the HSM storage. If the state changes to released, then the bulk data of the file is moved to the HSM storage and only the file skeleton
is kept. If the file is accessed or the lfs hsm_restore command is executed, the file is restored and the state is changes back to archived.
The aim of the Lustre HSM framework is to provide an interface for seamlessly archiving data which is no
longer used, and place them into a long term retrievable archive storage (such as tape drives).
The meta information of the archived data such as the file name, user id, etc. is however still
present in the Lustre file system, whereas the bulk data is placed on the retrievable storage.
When the released data is accessed, the bulk data is seamlessly copied from the retrievable storage back to the Lustre
file system. In summary, the data is still available regardless of where it is actually stored.
For providing such a functionality, the HSM framework is embedded in the main Lustre components and explained
for the case of retrieving data in the Figure below.
Triggered actions and data flows for retrieving data inside the Lustre HSM framework.
The participating nodes (depicted as dashed frames) are: Client, MDS, OSS, Copytool, Storage. The Lustre client opens a file which is already archived, thus the bulk data is not available on any OST. The MDT node receives the open call, allocate objects on the OST and notifies the HSM coordinator to copy in data for file indentifier (short FID) of the corresponding file. The copytool receives from the HSM coordinator the event to copyin data of FID and notifies the internal data mover for retrieving the data stored on the storage node and copy it over to a OST. Once the copy process is completed, the data mover notifies the HSM agent with a copydone message and the HSM agent finalizes the process with a HSM copydone message back to the MDT node.
Tivoli Storage Manager (now renamed to IBM Spectrum Protect) (TSM) is a client/server product from IBM employed in heterogeneous distributed environments to backup and archive data. The difference between a backup and an archive can be summarized as follows:
- Backup: A copy of the data is stored in the event the original becomes lost or damaged. Typically an incremental (forever) backup strategy is performed.
- Archive: Remove from an on-line system those data no longer in day to day use, and place them into a long term retrievable storage (such as tape drives).
The core capabilities and features of a TSM server are:
- Compression: Compress data stream seamless either on client or server side.
- Deduplication: Eliminating duplicate copies of repeating data.
- Collocation: Store and pack data of a client in few number of tapes as much as possible to reduce the number of media mounts and for minimizing tape drive movements.
- Storage hierarchies: Automatically move data from faster devices to slower devices based on characteristics such as file size or storage capacity.
The last issue is a crucial feature for the Lustre HSM framework, as it enables effectively archiving and retrieving data to fast devices, rather than being tied up to slow but large and cheap devices (see Fig. below).
Storage hierarchy of a TSM server. Fast but limited space storage devices (high cost per GByte) are located at the
top of the pyramid, whereas slower but large space storage devices (low cost per GByte) are located at the bottom.
Fast storage devices act as a cache layer, where data in automatically migrated by the TSM server based on access pattern and
space occupation level. More details can be found in IBM Tivoli Storage Manager Implementation Guide (pp. 257).
Denote r1 the transfer rate to (fast) storage devices s1 and r2 the transfer rate to (slow) storage devices s2. Make sure to set the migration threshold t from s1 to s2 to a proper value which suits your use case. Example: Let r1 = 800MB/sec, r2 = 200MB/sec, s1 = 150TB and migration threshold is set to t = 0.6. If r1 > r2, then after t · s1 / (r1 - r2) seconds, s1 is 100% full. For that example it yields 41.66667 hours, when continuously writing into s1 with rate r1.
The TSM server is an object storage server and is developed for storing and retrieving named objects. Similar to Lustre, the TSM server has two main storage areas, database and data storage. The database contains the metadata of the objects such as unique identifiers, names and attributes, whereas the data storage contains the object data. Each object stored on the TSM server has a name associated with it that is determined by the client. The object name is composed of:
- fs: File space name (mount point),
- hl: High level name (directory name),
- ll: Low level name (file name),
and must be specified to identify the object for operations query, archive, retrieve and delete. In addition to determined TSM
metadata information, user defined metadata can be stored on the TSM server of size up to 255 bytes. The user defined space is
employed to store Lustre information as well as a CRC32 check-sum and a magic id (see Fig. below).
As described above, a copytool is composed of a HSM proxy and data mover that runs on the same node. Loosely speaking, the copytool receives archive, retrieve and delete actions from MDT node and triggers data moving operations. In more detail it is a daemon process that requires a Lustre mount point for accessing Lustre files and processes actions HSMA_ARCHIVE, HSMA_RESTORE, HSMA_REMOVE and HSMA_CANCEL as depicted below.
The functions ct_archive(session), ct_restore(session) and ct_remove(session) implement the core actions for accessing named objects and for transferring data between the Lustre mount point and the TSM storage.
For achieving high data throughput by means of parallelism the copytool employs the producer-consumer model. The data
structure of the model is a concurrent queue. The producer is a single thread receiving HSM action items from the MDS’s and
enqueues the items in the queue. There are multiple consumer threads, each having a session opened to the TSM server, which are
dequeueing items and executing the HSM actions (see Fig. below).
Overview of a single-producer multiple-consumer model for a produce thread (P-Thread) and four consumer threads (C-Threads). Three C-Threads dequeued HSM action items and are executing the actions. The P-Thread received from the MDS a new HSM action item and enqueues the item into the concurrent queue. Once the enqueue operation is successful, C-Thread_4 will be notified to dequeue and execute new HSM action.
Before using LTSM a working access to a TSM server is required. One can install for testing purposes a fully working
TSM server (e.g. inside a KVM) for a period of 30 days before the license expires. A complete installation and setup guide is provided
at TSM Server Installation Guide.
Download and install the TSM API client provided at 8.1.X.Y-TIV-TSMBAC-LinuxX86_DEB.tar.
Make sure to install tivsm-api64.amd64.deb where the header files dapitype.h, dsmapips.h, ... and the low-level library libApiTSM64.so are provided.

Note, there is unfortunately no low-level TSM API call to query the maximum number of mount points (that is parallel sessions). This number is an upper limit of the number of parallel threads of the copytool. To determine the maximum number of mount points and thus set the number of threads appropriately, one can apply a trick and send dummy transactions to the TSM server until one receives a certain error code. That is the reason why at start you see (in debug mode) the output of node mountpoint check when starting the copytool with option --enable-maxmpc.
Once the copytool is started one can run the Lustre commands lfs hsm_archive, lfs hsm_release, lfs hsm_restore as depicted in the state diagram.
In the following example we archive the Lustre wiki website:
wget -O - -o /dev/null http://wiki.lustre.org > /lustre/wiki.lustre.org && sudo lfs hsm_archive /lustre/wiki.lustre.org.
If the command was successful you should see:

There are basically 3 knobs for adjusting the archive/retrieve performance.
- The Txnbytelimit option for adjusting the number of bytes the tsmapi buffers before it sends a transaction to the TSM server. The option depends on the workload, a value of 2GByte resulted in good performance on most tested machines and setups.
- The buffer length TSM_BUF_LENGTH for sending and receiving TSM bulk data. Empirical investigations showed that a buffer length of 2^15 - 4 = 32764 resulted in good performance on most tested machines and setups.
- Maximum number of TSM mount points (that is parallel threaded sessions) and related QUEUE_MAX_ITEMS setting. As described above, this parameter is crucial for achieving high throughput. By means of QUEUE_MAX_ITEMS the maximum number of HSM actions items in the queue is determined. That is, no new HSM action items will be received until queue length drops below QUEUE_MAX_ITEMS. This value is set as QUEUE_MAX_ITEMS = 2 * # threads.
For checking the archive/retrieve performance the benchmark tool ltsmbench can be used

For more TSM server/client tuning tips see Tips for Tivoli Storage Manager Performance Tuning and Troubleshooting
By means of ltsmbench the archive and retrieve performance is measured from a ltsm machine to a TSM server. The TSM server is equipped with SSD's bundled into a hardware RAID-5 where the TSM database and transactions logs are located.
The TSM bulk data is placed on regular disks bundled into a hardware RAID-6 device. The archive and retrieve performance for increasing number of threads {1,2,..,16} is visualized as a Box-Whisker-Plot.
The Lustre file system can be bond to multiple HSM storage backends, where each bond is identified by
an unique number called the archive id. This concepts thus allows scaling within the Lustre HSM framework.
In the simplest case, only one copytool instance is started which handles
all archive id's in the range {1,2,...,32}. That is, all data is transferred through a single TSM server though
with multi-threaded access. In the full expanded parallel setup 32 TSM servers can be leveraged for data
transfer as depicted below.
Archiving and releasing a file F with the TSM copytool and subsequently moving
F to a different Lustre directory results in a mismatch between
the readlink -f F and the TSM object /fs/hl/ll stored on the TSM server.
As a consequence the file cannot be retrieved from the TSM server anymore.
To overcome this problem, each file archived with the TSM copytool stores in the extended attribute
user.lustre.uuid an UUID value, e.g. user.lustre.uuid=0xc72e6182ab0b4e00b6798282dea857fe.
The UUID value is also stored in the TSM object description field when F is archived.
Additional fields are /fs/hl/ll and some more as described above.
A released file F is queried e.g. as follows: /fs/*/** and description=0xc72e6182ab0b4e00b6798282dea857fe.
If the query is successful, then the data of the TSM object is written into file F.
Otherwise, the query is repeated however as follows: /fs/hl/ll, that is with readlink -f F.
Note, make sure the Lustre file system is mounted with extended attribute capability, that is (/lustre type lustre (...,user_xattr,...).
In the manual pages lhsmtool_tsm.1 and ltsmc.1 usage details and options of lhsmtool_tsm and ltsmc are provided.
