HP SVA V2.1 System Administration Guide

• Section names that support visualization are preceded with the prefix SVA_.
• Section names that are site customizations can have any name that is not already in use.
Avoid using names that conflict with cluster host names.
See Section 1.1.3 for examples.
1.1.2.3 Tag Names
Tag names represent general characteristics of the SVA that are needed or useful for allocating
resources, launching jobs, and managing the way jobs execute. Tags names have the following
characteristics:
• Tag names are case sensitive.
• Tag names must begin in column one.
• Tag names cannot include spaces or special characters.
• The tag name and equal sign cannot have any space between them. Tag names equate with
tag values.
See Section 1.1.3 for examples.
1.1.2.4 Tag Values
Tag values specify a tag value or option. Tag values have the following characteristics:
• Values must be enclosed in quotation marks (“ “).
• Values returned by the API do not return quotation marks.
• The tag value and the equal sign cannot have space between them.
• You can include a quotation mark (") in a value by immediately preceding it with a backslash
(\).
• Boolean values are yes or no (case sensitive).
See Section 1.1.3 for examples.
1.1.2.5 INCLUDE Statement
You can use INCLUDE statements to give the Configuration Data Files a more modular
organization and to customize the Configuration Data Files in site-specific ways; for example,
for Chromium and CAVElib. In this way, the customized sections can be stored in separate files
and included in the Site and User Configuration Data Files.
You can also use INCLUDE statements is to capture site-specific changes to the Site Configuration
File. Any changes made to the Site Configuration File itself are lost if the file is regenerated using
the svaconfigure Utility.
• INCLUDE statements must begin in column one.
• The file name following an INCLUDE statement must be inside quotation marks (").
• INCLUDE statements are only valid in the Site Configuration File.
• If the name is not fully qualified, then the relative path is assumed to be
/hptc_cluster/sva/etc/.
The following code example illustrates the use of the INCLUDE statement within a
Configuration Data File:
# Comment
[SVA_SECTION]
TAG="data with spaces"
INCLUDE "file_name"
