Thank you all for your help,

 

Seems like the problem was permissions issue because I started the "sampleStartup.sh" script as "sudo" and the status is now being archived. I will run it for few days to store some data and test data retrieval.

 

Best Regards,

When I was deploying Archiver Appliance one month ago, I encountered the same issue and I finally found the root cause was that I brought up Archiver Appliance with non-root user, however, the default STS/MTS/LTS paths in the generated sampleStartup.sh script were as follows, which were not writable by non-root user without "chmod" configuration, thus Arcihver Appliance cannot create PB files. After setting STS/MTS/LTS path to a writable directory, the issue was gone and the state can transfer to "Being Archived".

 

export ARCHAPPL_SHORT_TERM_FOLDER=/arch/sts/ArchiverStore

export ARCHAPPL_MEDIUM_TERM_FOLDER=/arch/mts/ArchiverStore

export ARCHAPPL_LONG_TERM_FOLDER=/arch/lts/ArchiverStore

 

But I am not sure if your root cause is the same as mine.

Hi

 

I used a single machine install for testing the archiver appliance as a proof-of-concept on a local machine. I added 2 PVs to the system using the management console, the status goes from "initial sampling" to "Appliance assigned" and it just stops here where it should go to "Being archived". Why the appliance is not archiving the PVs?

 

Thanks!

 

Abdalla.
