Ignite-UX Administration Guide for HP-UX 11i (B3921-90080, November 2013)

NIS domain The group of systems sharing NIS configuration information.
O
offline diagnostic
environment (ODE)
Diagnostic utilities stored in the boot area or service partition able to run without the operating
system.
optional With 11i v3, software bundles that are not installed with HP-UX by default. You must select these
bundles before installation. Ignite-UX is an example of an optional software bundle.
P
partition A portion of a disk device that appears to volume managers, file systems, and other OS software
as a disk device. Partitions allow different portions of a disk to hold content needed for boot, OS
file systems, diagnostic tools, and other information.
pax An HP-UX file archiving command that extracts, lists, and writes member files to an archive.
Ignite-UX uses pax to produce tar, cpio, and pax formatted archives. See pax(1),tar(1), and
cpio(1).
PDC See processor dependent code.
persistent DSF A DSF conforming to the naming model introduced in HP-UX 11i v3 to support agile addressing.
The device file name contains an instance number, such as /dev/disk/disk#, and the minor
number has no hardware path information.
physical location Device identifier that uses information such as cabinet, bay, and LUN ID to indicate where the
device is actually located. Used to indicate a specific device independent of I/O path changes.
pkg_rec_depot An Ignite-UX command that repackages the Ignite-UX product into a depot on an Ignite-UX server
in order to distribute Ignite-UX software to client systems that use the Ignite-UX server for network
recovery. See pkg_rec_depot(1M).
print_manifest An Ignite-UX command that displays a manifest of the system it is run on. It can either display the
original manifest, or gather information about the current system when it runs. See
print_manifest(1M).
processor
dependent code
The firmware that implements all processor-dependent functionality including initialization and
self-test of the processor. Upon completion, it loads and transfers control to the initial system
loader (ISL). Firmware behavior varies depending on the hardware series. See pdc(1M).
product In SD-UX, a collection of filesets, individual filesets, or both.
PXE Stands for preboot execution environment. A protocol built on top of DHCP on HP-UX Itanium-based
systems used to request boot services from a server in order to load the operating system.
R
reboot To stop all running code including the kernel, restart a computer, and boot the system. See
shutdown(1M) and reboot(1M).
RECCMDS A compressed tar archive of commands required for expert recovery on PA-RISC systems.
RECCMDSIA A compressed tar archive of commands required for expert recovery on Itanium-based systems.
recommended With 11i v3, software bundles that are recommended and should be installed with HP-UX because
they fulfill required software dependencies, if any exist. You can deselect the bundles before
installation.
recover Perform a system recovery.
recovery See system recovery.
recovery archive An archive that retains host specific customizations from the system.
recovery image A system-specific snapshot of a system that contains hostname, IP address, networking information,
all files and directories essential to bringing up a functional system, as well as optionally including
specified data on a disk, volume group, file, or directory basis. It is created with
make_[tape|net]_recovery.
recovery shell See expert recovery.
