guided procedure
guided procedure. A software tool that assists you in performing complex configuration or
replacement tasks on an HP NonStop S-series server. Guided procedures are
accessible from the Start menu on your system console. Examples include Replace
SEB or MSEB, Configure ServerNet Node, and Replace IOMF.
HP NonStop Kernel. The operating system for HP NonStop S-series systems.
HP NonStop process. An HP product that supports the Transmission Control
Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) layers. TCP/IP processes are used together with
the communications line interface processor (CLIP) pNA+ to provide the transport layer
between wide area network (WAN) I/O processes and data link control (DLC) tasks,
between ConMgr and the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) task,
between the WANBoot process and BOOTP tasks, and between a TSM process and a
DIAG task.
HP NonStop Open System Management product. See OSM.
I/O Adapter Module (IOAM). A collection of modular components that provides I/O and is
installed in an I/O Adapter Module Enclosure (IOAM Enclosure). This collection
includes ServerNet Switch Boards, Fibre Channel ServerNet Adapters (FCSAs), and
power supplies.
I/O Adapter Module (IOAM) Enclosure. The sheet-metal carrier that is installed in a
standard 19-inch rack and contains the IOAM components.
IOMF. See I/O multifunction (IOMF).
I/O multifunction (IOMF). (1) An HP NonStop S-series customer-replaceable unit (CRU)
that connects an I/O enclosure to a processor enclosure through a ServerNet cable
and supplies power to the components within the IOMF CRU as well as redundantly to
the disk drives, SCSI terminators, and ServerNet adapters in that enclosure. The IOMF
contains a power supply, a service processor (SP), a ServerNet router, an Ethernet
controller, an external ServerNet port, and three SCSI ServerNet addressable
controllers (S-SACs) in a single unit.
LC-LC cable. a multimode fiber cable that connects an FCSA to a Fibre Channel storage
device.
LDEV. A logical device in a disk array.
LED. See light-emitting diode (LED).
light-emitting diode (LED). A semiconductor device that emits light from its surface.
Indicator lights are composed of LEDs.
logical unit number (LUN). The logical unit address configured in the ESS to map to an
LDEV. Specification of the port, hostgroup on the port, and the LUN identifies a specific
LDEV.
