		<event:abstract><![CDATA[The growing complexity of mass storage systems at major data centers is
causing stress on system administrators to keep performance at optimal
levels. As storage requirements grow, so does the number of routine tasks
that the administrator must perform, as well as the time it takes for
these to be executed. The solution being proposed to ease this burden is
the Mass Storage System Administrator Autonomic Assistant (MSSAAA). The
MSSAAA is a collection of agents that perform some of the more common
tasks while the administrators handle higher-level issues. Using the
principles of autonomic computing, the MSSAAA is governed by a centralized
set of policies that the administrator will review on a regular basis and
can adjust as necessary.
<p>
The goal is to use an autonomic assistant to substantially reduce the
amount of time it takes to address specific problems in the system. The
process of analyzing the amount of time saved will involve recording
information on the types of errors occurring and consulting in detail with
the responsible system administrators. The mechanisms suggested by the
system administrators will produce an assistant that handles these tasks
effectively. The results will show how efficiently and effectively the
MSSAAA handled its assigned tasks, and how it has eased the daily burden
of system administrators at a major high performance computing center.]]></event:abstract>
