service connection
A connection between the system console and the OSM software on a NonStop server. A
service connection is initiated from the browser on the system console and can be used to
communicate with the server only when the NonStop operating system is running. The
OSM Service Connection provides a comprehensive service and maintenance picture of
the server or ServerNet cluster and is used to perform most service management tasks.
See also low-level link.
service processor (SP)
A physical component of the processor multifunction (PMF) customer-replaceable unit
(CRU) or multifunction I/O (MFIO) board that controls the serial maintenance bus
(SMB) and provides environmental and maintenance functions, including system load
functions. Service processors operate in pairs in order to provide fault tolerance. One pair
of service processors in a system is designated as the master service processors (MSPs).
Other pairs within the same system are called expansion service processors (ESPs).
See also master service processor (MSP), and peer service processor (PSP).
service processor (SP) event messages
A notification generated by the master service processors (MSPs) on the NonStop server.
The OSM Notification Director can gather SP event messages directly from the MSPs,
allowing SP event messages to be received when the NonStop operating system is not
running.
service provider
A person trained and qualified to service field-replaceable units (FRUs) associated
with a NonStop server.
1.
An organization, such as the Global Customer Support Center (GCSC), that helps
you resolve problems with your server or ServerNet cluster. OSM allows you to
utilize the help of a service provider by configuring OSM to support remote
notification and remote access.
2.
service side
The side of a system enclosure that contains the CRUs. It is the side opposite the
appearance side. Cables are accessed from the service side.
single-mode fiber-optic (SMF) ServerNet cable
A fiber-optic cable that allows only one mode to propagate. SMF ServerNet cable has a
small-diameter core for optimized long-distance transmission.
See also multimode fiber-optic (MMF) ServerNet cable.
