MRouter
MRouter. A field-programmable gate array (FPGA) or application-specific integrated circuit
(ASIC) that is part of the serial maintenance bus (SMB) architecture. The MRouter
distributes the SMB throughout a group.
MSP. See master service processor (MSP)
.
multifunction I/O board (MFIOB). A ServerNet adapter that contains ServerNet
addressable controllers (SACs) for SCSI and Ethernet; a service processor; ServerNet
links to the processor, to the two ServerNet adapter slots, and to one of the ServerNet
expansion board (SEB) slots; and connections to the serial maintenance bus (SMB),
which connects components within an enclosure to the service processor.
network. Two or more computer systems (nodes) connected so that they can exchange
information and share resources. See also ServerNet system area network (ServerNet
SAN), wide area network (WAN), and local area network (LAN).
node. A uniquely identified computer system connected to one or more other computer
systems in a network. See also ServerNet node
.
nonconfigured object. An object that comes into existence after a Subsystem Control
Facility (SCF) subsystem is running and that was created in response to activity outside
the SCF environment. An SCF STATUS command can display the name of a
nonconfigured object, but its state is UNKNOWN.
NonStop System RISC Model G processor (NSR-G processor). The model designation for
the NonStop Series/RISC (TNS/R) processor used in the NonStop S-series Model
S70000 server.
NonStop System RISC Model T processor (NSR-T processor). The model designation for
the NonStop Series/RISC (TNS/R) processor used in the NonStop S-series Model
S72000 server.
NonStop System RISC Model W processor (NSR-W processor). The model designation
for the NonStop Series/RISC (TNS/R) processor used in the NonStop S-series Model
S7000 server.
NonStop Transaction Manager/MP (NonStop TM/MP). HP software that provides
transaction protection and database consistency in demanding online transaction
processing (OLTP) and decision-support environments. It gives full protection to
transactions that access distributed NonStop SQL and Enscribe databases, as well as
recovery capabilities for transactions, online disk volumes, and entire databases. The
component of NonStop TM/MP that provides these features is the Transaction
Management Facility (TMF) subsystem. See also Transaction Management Facility
(TMF) subsystem.
NSR-G processor. See NonStop System RISC Model G processor (NSR-G processor)
.
NSR-T processor. See NonStop System RISC Model T processor (NSR-T processor)
.
NSR-W processor. See NonStop System RISC Model W processor (NSR-W processor)
