IOP
an external ServerNet port, and three SCSI ServerNet addressable controllers (SACs) in
a single unit. The IOMF CRU consists of three subassemblies: the multifunction I/O
board (MFIOB), the ServerNet buffer board (SBB), and the power supply subassembly.
IOP. See input/output process (IOP)
.
IP. See Internet protocol (IP)
.
IP address. An address that identifies a specific host to the Internet protocol (IP). An IP
address consists of two parts: a network address, which identifies the network, and a
local address, which identifies a host within a network. A network address is
concatenated with a host address to form the IP address and uniquely identify a host
within a network. IP routes data between source and destination IP addresses.
IPC. See interprocessor communications (IPC).
ISO. See International Organization for Standardization (ISO).
ISP. See intelligent SCSI processor (ISP)
.
KB. See kilobyte (KB)
.
Kernel subsystem. In G-series RVUs, the subsystem for configuration and management of
the Subsystem Control Facility (SCF) subsystem managers that are generic processes,
some system attributes, and the ServerNet X and Y fabrics.
kilobyte (KB). A unit of measurement equal to 1024 bytes. See also gigabyte (GB)
and
megabyte (MB).
labeled dump. A token-by-token display-text representation of the Subsystem Programmatic
Interface (SPI) command buffer or response buffer, as produced by the Subsystem
Control Facility (SCF) commands DETAIL CMDBUFFER and DETAIL RSPBUFFER.
The display text includes a labeled value for each token.
LAN. See local area network (LAN)
.
LB. See logic board (LB)
.
LED. See light-emitting diode (LED)
.
LIF. See logical interface (LIF)
.
light-emitting diode (LED). A semiconductor device that emits light from its surface.
Indicator lights are composed of LEDs. See also indicator lights
.
line. The specific hardware path over which data is transmitted or received. A line can also
have a process name associated with it that identifies an input/output process (IOP) or
logical device associated with that specific hardware path.
