Glossary
This glossary explains the terms used in this manual.
A
automatic failback
A function for checking the status of paths at regular intervals, and automatically
placing the status of a path recovered from an error into the Online status.
If a path with an Offline(E) status recovers from an error, an automatic failback will
place the path Online.
Automatic failbacks check the status of paths that were placed in the Offline(E) status
because of an error, but do not check the status of paths that were placed in the
Offline(C) status by executing an offline operation. For details on offline operations,
see
offline (Places Paths Offline) on page 6-7.
AutoPATH_ID
An ID that HDLM assigns to a path during the system startup. Every path has a unique
AutoPATH_ID.
(See also: path)
B
boot disk environment
An environment in which the startup disk is in a storage system instead of in the host.
C
CHA (Channel Adapter)
An adapter for controlling the channels of a storage system.
