HP NonStop™ TCP/IPv6
HP NonStop™ TCP/IPv6. An HP product that adds IP version 6 (IPv6) functionality to the
parallel library TCP/IP product. IPv6 is a TCP/IP protocol that extends the IP version 4
(IPv4) of 32 bits to 128 bits. NonStop TCP/IPv6 can be run in three modes: INET (only
IPv4 and is a direct replacement for parallel library TCP/IP), INET 6 (only IPv6), and
Dual (both IPv4 and IPv6 communications).
HP NonStop™ Technical Library (NTL). The application for accessing, searching, and
viewing technical publications and support information for the HP NonStop server. NTL
replaces Total Information Manager (TIM).
HP NonStop™ Transaction Management Facility (TMF). 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 SQL and Enscribe databases, as well as recovery
capabilities for transactions, online disk volumes, and entire databases
HP Tandem Advanced Command Language (TACL). The user interface to the HP
NonStop™ Kernel operating system. The TACL product is both a command interpreter
and a command language. Users can write TACL programs that perform complex
tasks or provide a consistent user interface across independently programmed
applications.
HP Tandem Failure Data System (TFDS). A diagnostic tool that is a component of the HP
NonStop™ Kernel operating system. The TFDS tool isolates software problems and
provides automatic processor-failure data collection, diagnosis, and recovery services.
HP Transaction Application Language (TAL). A systems programming language with
many features specific to stack-oriented TNS systems.
hybrid shared run-time library (hybrid SRL). A shared run-time library (SRL) that has
been augmented by the addition of a dynamic section that exports the SRL’s symbols
in a form that can be used by position independent code (PIC) clients. A hybrid SRL
looks like a dynamic-link library (DLL) to PIC clients (except it cannot be loaded at
other addresses and cannot itself link to DLLs). The code and data in the SRL are no
different in a hybrid SRL, and its semantics for non-PIC clients are unchanged.
Hz. See hertz (Hz).
I18N. See internationalization.
IBC. See in-band control (IBC).
ICMP. See Internet control message protocol (ICMP).
identifier. A unique name; for example, TANDEM^FILES^TO^COPY; in the CONFTEXT file
that refers to a text string (one or more file names as given in the CONFAUX file).
When Distributed Systems Management/Software Configuration Manager (DSM/SCM)
encounters an identifier, it substitutes the text string for the identifier.
