+ <h1>Mounting Files</h1>
+
+ <h2>Purpose</h2>
+
+ <p>This document contrasts two methods for mounting an hdf5 file
+ on another hdf5 file: the case where the relationship between
+ files is a tree and the case where it's a graph. The tree case
+ simplifies current working group functions and allows symbolic
+ links to point into ancestor files whereas the graph case is
+ more consistent with the organization of groups within a
+ particular file.
+
+ <h2>Definitions</h2>
+
+ <p>If file <code>child</code> is mounted on file
+ <code>parent</code> at group <code>/mnt</code> in
+ <code>parent</code> then the contents of the root group of
+ <code>child</code> will appear in the group <code>/mnt</code> of
+ <code>parent</code>. The group <code>/mnt</code> is called the
+ <em>mount point</em> of the child in the parent.
+
+ <h2>Common Features</h2>
+
+ <p>These features are common to both mounting schemes.
+
+ <ul>
+ <li>The previous contents of <code>/mnt</code> in
+ <code>parent</code> is temporarily hidden. If objects in that
+ group had names from other groups then the objects will still
+ be visible by those other names.
+
+ <li>The mount point is actually an OID (not a name) so if there
+ are other names besides <code>/mnt</code> for that group then
+ the root group of the child will be visible in all those
+ names.
+
+ <li>At most one file can be mounted per mount point but a parent
+ can have any number of mounted children.
+
+ <li>Name lookups will entail a search through the mount table at
+ each stage of the lookup. The search will be O(log
+ <em>N</em>) where <em>N</em> is the number of children mounted
+ on that file.
+
+ <li>Files open for read-only can be mounted on other files that
+ are open for read-only. Mounting a file in no way changes the
+ contents of the file.
+
+ <li>Mounting a child may hide mount points that exist below the
+ child's mount point, but it does not otherwise affect mounted
+ files.
+
+ <li>Hard links cannot cross file boundaries. An object cannot
+ be moved or renamed with <code>H5Gmove()</code> in such a way
+ that the new location would be in a different file than the
+ original location.
+
+ <li>The child can be accessed in a manner different from the
+ parent. For instance, a read-write child in a read-only
+ parent, a parallel child in a serial parent, <em>etc</em>.
+
+ <li>If some object in the child is open and the child is
+ unmounted and/or closed, the object will remain open and
+ accessible until explicitly closed. As in the mountless case,
+ the underlying UNIX file will be held open until all member
+ objects are closed.
+
+ <li>Current working groups that point into a child will remain
+ open and usable even after the child has been unmounted and/or
+ closed.
+
+ <li>Datasets that share a committed datatype must reside in the
+ same file as the datatype.
+
+ </ul>

+ in the <code>eos</code> group of the two data files. Instead of
+ copying the contents of <code>eos.h5</code> into every physics
+ output file we simply mount <code>eos.h5</code> as a read-only

+ <h1>Performance Analysis and Issues</h1>
+
+ <h2>1. Introduction</h2>
+
+ <p>This section includes brief discussions of performance issues
+ in HDF5 and performance analysis tools for HDF5 or pointers to
+ such discussions.
+
+ <h2>2. Dataset Chunking</h2>
+
+ Appropriate dataset chunking can make a siginificant difference
+ in HDF5 performance. This topic is discussed in
+ <a href="Chunking.html">Dataset Chunking Issues</a> elsewhere
+ in this <cite>User's Guide</cite>.
+
+ <h2>3. Use of the Pablo Instrumentation of HDF5</h2>
+
+ Pablo HDF5 Trace software provides a means of measuring the
+ performance of programs using HDF5.
+
+ <p>The Pablo software consists
+ of an instrumented copy of the HDF5 library, the Pablo Trace and
+ Trace Extensions libraries, and some utilities for processing the
+ output. The instrumented version of the HDF5 library has hooks
+ inserted into the HDF5 code which call routines in the Pablo Trace
+ library just after entry to each instrumented HDF5 routine and
+ just prior to exit from the routine. The Pablo Trace Extension
+ library has programs that track the I/O activity between the
+ entry and exit of the HDF5 routine during execution.
+
+ <p>A few lines of code must be inserted in the user's main program
+ to enable tracing and to specify which HDF5 procedures are to be
+ traced. The program is linked with the special HDF5 and Pablo
+ libraries to produce an executable. Running this executable on
+ a single processor produces an output file called the trace file
+ which contains records, called Pablo Self-Defining Data Format
+ (SDDF) records, which can later be analyzed using the
+ HDF5 Analysis Utilities. The HDF5 Analysis Utilites can be used
+ to interpret the SDDF records in the trace files to produce a
+ report describing the HDF5 IO activity that occurred during
+ execution.
+
+ <p>For further instructions, see the file <code>READ_ME</code>
+ in the <code> $(toplevel)/hdf5/pablo/ </code> subdirectory of
+ the HDF5 source code distribution.
+
+ <p>For further information about Pablo and the
+ Self-Defining Data Format, visit the Pablo website at
+ <code><a href="http://www-pablo.cs.uiuc.edu/">http://www-pablo.cs.uiuc.edu/</a></code>.
