Glossary–23
UPS
Uninterruptible power supply. A battery-powered power supply
guaranteed to provide power to an electrical device in the event of an
unexpected interruption to the primary power supply. Uninterruptible
power supplies are usually rated by the amount of voltage supplied and
the length of time the voltage is supplied.
VHDCI
Very high-density-cable interface. A 68-pin interface. Required for
Ultra-SCSI connections.
virtual terminal
A software path from an operator terminal on the host to the
controller's CLI interface, sometimes called a host console. The path
can be established via the host port on the controller or via the
maintenance port through an intermediary host.
VTDPY
An abbreviation for Virtual Terminal Display Utility.
warm swap
A device replacement method that allows the complete system to
remain online during device removal or insertion. The system bus may
be halted, or quiesced, for a brief period of time during the warm-swap
procedure.
Wide Ultra SCSI
Fast/20 on a Wide SCSI bus.
Worldwide
name
A unique 64-bit number assigned to a subsystem by the Institute of
Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) and set by manufacturing
prior to shipping. This name is referred to as the node ID within the
CLI.
write-back
caching
A cache management method used to decrease the subsystem response
time to write requests by allowing the controller to declare the write
operation “complete” as soon as the data reaches its cache memory.
The controller performs the slower operation of writing the data to the
disk drives at a later time.
write-through
caching
Write-through caching always writes directly to disk, ensuring that the
application is never tricked into believing that the data is on the disk
when it may not be. This results in hightest data integrity, through with
slighly reduced performance.
