RELOAD
peripherals, and restructuring a database. Reconfiguring a system might or might not
require a planned outage.
RELOAD. A TACL command to load the NonStop Kernel operating system image from disk
over the ServerNet fabrics into the memory of the processor.
RESTORE. A utility for the NonStop range of servers that copies files from a backup tape to
disk. See also BACKUP.
service provider. (1) A person trained and qualified to service field-replaceable units
(FRUs). (2) An organization, such as the Global Customer Support Center (GCSC),
that helps you resolve problems with your NonStop S-series server. The TSM package
allows you to use the help of a service provider by configuring TSM to support remote
notification and remote access.
SID. See system image disk (SID).
SIT. See system image tape (SIT).
site update tape (SUT). One or more tapes that contain each target system’s site-specific
subvolume and various products. Each product contains a softdoc and a complete set
of files. A SUT is delivered with every new NonStop S-series system and can be
ordered whenever a new RVU of the system software is available. A full SUT contains
the current RVU of the NonStop Kernel operating system and all product software that
has been ordered with it. A partial SUT contains a subset of products for the current
software RVU.
SIV. See system interrupt vector (SIV).
startup file. A file invoked by the local operator or by another startup file that contains
commands to start up system devices, communications lines, and system and
application software.
SUT. See site update tape (SUT)
.
SWID. The software identification tool invoked by the SYSGENR program that audits file
identification information about your software.
SYSGENR. The system generation program that generates a customized version of the
NonStop Kernel operating system.
SYSnn subvolume. A subvolume on the $SYSTEM volume where the new version of the
NonStop Kernel operating system image is located. Also located on the SYSnn
subvolume is system-dependent and RVU-dependent software. nn is an octal number
in the range %00 through %77.
SYSPOOL. The system data space that remains in memory after all system data structures
are built by the NonStop Kernel operating system at the time of a processor load.
