SAN (Storage Area Network)

A high-speed network connecting hosts to storage systems. This network is independent

of a LAN and is dedicated to data transfers. A SAN provides faster access to storage

systems, and prevents the transfer of high-volumes of data from deteriorating LAN

performance.

SCSI device

A SCSI disk device.

SLPR (Storage Logical Partition)

A function supported by Universal Storage Platform V/VM series, Virtual Storage

Platform series and VSP G1000 series for logically splitting up a storage system. This

function splits up the resources, such as ports, CLPR, and volumes, in the storage

system, so that the user can manage each resource independently.
