The information provided by the HPSS DSI should be improved to allow site administrators to more easily diagnose issues. Currently, the only information provided is through terse messages that show up in Transfer task output. There is little guidance for helping site administrators correlate Transfer task errors with HPSS logging. Additionally, the HPSS API reports several underlying error conditions as EIO which results in less helpful Task error messages. The overall logging should be improved to provide pertinent information in all errors messages and a logging configuration is needed for diagnosis of complex issues.
The information from HPSS is vague but could be improved by included the PIO debug information. The Transfer TaskID and HPSS request ID's could be included to help find pertinent information.
