McDATA® Sphereon 3032 and 3232 Fabric Switches Installation and Service Manual
Glossary
open systems mode The mode that is used for McDATA or open fabrics. See also operat-
ing mode; S/390 mode.
operating mode In directors or switches, in managed products, a selection between
s/390 and open systems mode. See also open systems mode; S/390
mode.
operating system OS. Software that controls execution of applications and provides ser-
vices such as resource allocation, scheduling, I/O control, and data
management. Most operating systems are predominantly software,
but partial hardware implementations are possible (D, T).
Operating System/390 OS/390™. An integrated, open-enterprise server operating system
developed by IBM that incorporates a leading-edge and open com-
munications server, distributed data and file services, parallel Sys-
plex™ support, object-oriented programming, distributed computing
environment, and open application interfaces (D).
optical cable Single fiber, multiple fibers, or a fiber bundle in a structure built to
meet optical, mechanical, and environmental specifications (D, E). See
also jumper cable; trunk cable. Synonymous with fiber-optic cable.
optical drive backup A data backup system that uses rewriteable optical cartridges (ROCs)
as the storage medium.
optical fiber
connector
Synonymous with connector.
ordered set In Fibre Channel protocol, four 10-bit characters (a combination of
data and special characters) providing low-level link functions, such
as frame demarcation and signaling between two ends of a link. It
provides for initialization of the link after power-on and for some
basic recovery functions.
original equipment
manufacturer
OEM. A company that has a special relationship with computer pro-
ducers. OEMs buy components and customize them for a particular
application. They sell the customized computer under their own
name. OEMs may not actually be the original manufacturers. They
are usually the customizers and marketers.
OS See operating system.
