7. In the Term Setting dialog box, specify the retention term. During this period, the access

attribute cannot be changed to read/write. You can enter the number of years and days, or

select Unlimited. The retention term can be extended but cannot be shortened.

• years: Specify the number of years within the range of 0 to 60. One year is counted as

365 days, whether the year is a leap year.

• days: Specify the number of days within the range of 0 to 21900.

For example, if 10 years 5 days or 0 years 3655 days is specified, the access attribute of

the volume cannot be changed to read/write in the next 3,655 days.

8. Click OK to close the dialog box.

9. In the Data Retention window, click Apply to apply the setting.

To extend the retention term later, open the Data Retention window, right-click the volume, and

then select Retention Term.

Changing an access attribute to read/write

Before changing the access attribute from read-only or protect to read/write, considering the

following:

• Do not assign an access attribute to a volume if any job is manipulating data on the volume.

If you assign an access attribute to such a volume, the job will possibly end abnormally.

• Make sure that the retention term is expired. If expired, the Retention Term column in the Data

Retention window shows 0. To change the access attribute to read/write within the retention

term, contact the HP Technical Support.

• Make sure that Expiration Lock indicates Disable -> Enable. If it indicates Enable -> Disable,

changing to read/write is restricted by an administrator for some reason. Contact the

administrator of your system to ask if you can change the access attribute. (See “Enabling or

disabling the expiration lock” (page 124))

Procedure 14 To change an access attribute to read/write

1. Log on to Remote Web Console as a user assigned to the Storage Administrator (Provisioning)

role.

2. In the Remote Web Console main window, click Actions > Other Function > Data Retention

to open the Data Retention window.

3. Click to change to Modify mode.

4. Select an LDKC number in the LDKC list, select a group in which the CU belongs in the CU

Group list, and then click a CU in the tree.

5. Right-click a volume for which you want to change access attributes. You may select multiple

volumes, select Attribute, and then click Read/Write.

6. Click Apply to apply the setting.

Enabling or disabling the expiration lock

The expiration lock provides enhanced volume protection. Enabling the expiration lock ensures

that read-only volumes and protect volumes cannot be changed to read/write volumes, even after

the retention term ends. Disabling the expiration lock changes the access attribute to read/write

after the retention term ends.

This setting applies to all volumes in the storage system with the read-only and protect attribute.

Procedure 15 To enable the expiration lock

1. Log on to Remote Web Console as a user assigned to the Storage Administrator (Provisioning)

role.
