Peripheral Utility Program (PUP)
tables and files to disk and then apply the audit trail images to reconstruct the files.
Online dumps are supported by the Compaq NonStop Transaction Management
Facility (TMF) subsystem.
Peripheral Utility Program (PUP). A utility used in D-series and earlier releases to manage
disks and other peripheral devices. In G-series releases, similar functions are
performed by the Subsystem Control Facility (SCF).
PIC. See plug-in card (PIC).
plug-in card (PIC). A replaceable component that provides a unique function when
installed in a customer-replaceable unit (CRU) or field-replaceable unit (FRU). PICs
for modular ServerNet expansion boards (MSEBs) and I/O multifunction (IOMF) 2
CRUs provide a choice of connection media for attaching ServerNet cables.
PMF CRU. See processor multifunction (PMF) CRU.
processor multifunction (PMF) CRU. (1) A Compaq NonStop Himalaya S-series
customer-replaceable unit (CRU) that contains a power supply, service processor (SP),
ServerNet router 1, Ethernet controller, three ServerNet addressable controllers
(SACs), and a processor and memory system in a single unit. The PMF CRU consists
of three subassemblies: the processor and memory board (PMB), the multifunction I/O
board (MFIOB), and the power supply subassembly. (2) A collective term for both PMF
CRUs and PMF 2 CRUs when a distinction between the two types of CRUs is not
required.
PUP. See Peripheral Utility Program (PUP).
READY state. The online state of a 5190 or 5194 tape drive. BOT RDYU, BOT RDYF,
READY U, and READY F are the four READY states.
RESTORE. A utility for the Compaq NonStop Himalaya range of servers that copies files
from a backup tape to disk. See also BACKUP
.
SAC. See ServerNet addressable controller (SAC).
SCF. See Subsystem Control Facility (SCF).
scratch tape. A labeled tape with an expired date. Such a tape volume can be used for
making dumps or random file transfers.
SCSI. See small computer system interface (SCSI).
SCSI ID. See device ID.
SCSI passthrough terminator. A bus-terminating plug connected between a cable and the
external connector of a customer-replaceable unit (CRU). The SCSI passthrough
terminator contains the necessary termination resistors required by the SCSI bus. See
also terminator
