A tray with an installed redundant
6140 Array, 1x1, 1x2, 1x3, 1x4, 1x5, 1x6, and 1x7 array types are available.
The route used for communication of system management information, usually
an out-of-band connection.
See site LAN.
See direct attached storage
Any host that uses the system for storage. A data host can be connected
directly to the array (direct attach storage, or DAS) or can be connected to an
external switch that supports multiple data hosts (storage area network, or
SAN). See also host.
The route taken by a data packet between a data host and the storage device.
A storage architecture in which one or two hosts that access data are connected
physically to a storage array.
A physical drive component that stores data.
A notification of something that happened on a device. There are many types
of events, and each type describes a separate occurrence. See also
alert.
A tray that does not have a RAID controller, used to expand the capacity of an
array. This type of tray must be attached to a controller tray to function.
A set of contiguous blocks with consecutive logical addresses on a physical or
virtual disk.
The process of changing the data path automatically to an alternate path.
The percentage of faults detected against all possible faults or against all faults
of a given type.
See Fibre Channel (FC).
A set of standards for a serial I/O bus capable of transferring data between
two ports at up to 100 megabytes/second, with standards proposals to go to
higher speeds. Fibre Channel supports point to point, arbitrated loop, and
switched topologies. Fibre Channel was completely developed through
industry cooperation, unlike SCSI, which was developed by a vendor and
submitted for standardization after the fact.
