Glossary–16 HSG80 ACS Solution Software Version 8.7 for Compaq Tru64 UNIX Installation and
Configuration Guide
pluggable
A replacement method that allows the complete system to remain
online during device removal or insertion. The system bus must be
halted, or quiesced, for a brief period of time during the replacement
procedure. See also hot-pluggable.
point-to-point
connection
A network configuration in which a connection is established between
two, and only two, terminal installations. The connection may include
switching facilities.
port
(1) In general terms, a logical channel in a communications system. (2)
The hardware and software used to connect a host controller to a
communications bus, such as a SCSI bus or serial bus.
Regarding the controller, the port is (1) the logical route for data in and
out of a controller that can contain one or more channels, all of which
contain the same type of data. (2) The hardware and software that
connects a controller to a SCSI device.
port_name
A 64-bit unique identifier assigned to each Fibre Channel port. The
Port_Name is communicated during the login and port discovery
process.
preferred
address
The AL_PA which an NL_Port attempts to acquire first during
initialization.
primary cabinet
The primary cabinet is the subsystem enclosure that contains the
controllers, cache modules, external cache batteries, and the PVA
module.
private NL_Port
An NL_Port which does not attempt login with the fabric and only
communicates with NL_Ports on the same loop.
program card
The PCMCIA card containing the controller operating software.
protocol
The conventions or rules for the format and timing of messages sent
and received.
PTL
Port-Target-LUN. The controller method of locating a device on the
controller device bus.
PVA module
Power Verification and Addressing module.
quiesce
The act of rendering bus activity inactive or dormant. For example,
“quiesce the SCSI bus operations during a device warm-swap.”
