Welcome to HPSSPy’s documentation!

Introduction

HPSSPy is a Python package for interacting with the HPSS tape storage system at NERSC. It is currently being developed on GitHub.

Requirements

HPSSPy assumes that the HPSS utilities hsi and htar are installed. As of 2023, these utilities are only available within the NERSC environment.

HPSSPy expects these utilities to exist in the directory ${HPSS_DIR}/bin, so be sure the environment variable HPSS_DIR is defined.
