An elementary set of non-Hermitian $N$ by $N$ matrices $H^{(N)}(\lambda) \neq [ H^{(N)}(\lambda)]^\dagger$ with real spectra is considered, assuming that each of these matrices represents a selfadjoint quantum Hamiltonian in an {\it ad hoc} Hilbert space of states ${\cal H}^{(physical)}$. The problem of an explicit specification of all of these spaces (i.e., in essence, of all of the eligible {\it ad hoc} inner products and metric operators $\Theta$) is addressed. The problem is shown exactly solvable and, for every size $N=2,4,...$ and parameter $\lambda \in (-1,1)$ in matrix $H^{(N)}(\lambda)$, the complete $N-$parametric set of metrics $\Theta^{(N)}_{\alpha_1,\alpha_2,...,\alpha_N}(\lambda)$ is recurrently defined by closed formula.
