  I'm thinking something like following for the HSM:

     1. HSM check to see if the file is candidate for
        HSMd
     2. If it is,
     3.        open file remove data.
     4.        close file.
     5.        Set EA to say it's HSMd.
 
                   or
     1. HSM check to see if the file is a candidate
for
         HSMd
     2. If it is,
     3.             get file Atrributes.
     4.             remove file.
     5.             touch file and set EA to say it's 
                    HSMd.


   Below are comments about questions you asked. I
  think we should stay away from writting scenarios
for now at least ones as detailed as I wrote.  For
example, After reading the AMANDA chapter I would
change the entire scenario which means I wasted a
 lot of time.  We should stick to the other documents
  in the list.


   
 
Reading through sequence diagram, I have some comments
and questions.
 
I'm impressed, who knew ASCII could look so good. I've
got to believe it was a pain though.
    No more of a pain then using power point. 

Item 4, you say the ABM creates a list of files. Is it
getting them from the cron or are is it going to
querry the portal/ADML?
    I'm thinking it will query the LVM.  

Would it be safer to move steps 5, 6 and 7 to the
bottom? That way if something bad happened during the
backup, we could more acurately reflect it in the
saved metadata.
    Sounds great. 

In step 8 are you referring to the metadata file being
backed up? 
   Yes

It seems that sending a batch of files in step 11 to
be backed up would preclude the looping of steps 9
though 15 

        I was thinking that there might be more than
one batch.

Is step 14 through the portal or through the VFS call?
         fs
