Glossary
operating systems, server platforms, and RAID implementation because the
enclosure itself is treated as simply another device on the SCSI bus. Many
other leading server, storage, and RAID controller manufacturers worldwide
have endorsed the SAF-TE specification. Products compliant with the SAF-
TE specification will reduce the cost of managing storage enclosures,
making it easier for a LAN administrator to obtain base-level fault-tolerant
alert notification and status information. All Mylex RAID controllers feature
SAF-TE.
SAN
See Storage Area Network
SANArray™
Server-independent External RAID Controllers that provide fibre channel
interface connections to loop or fabric topologies and dual redundant loops
for continuous access to large data pools. These controllers are designed for
homogeneous and heterogeneous operating system setups in Storage Area
Network environments.
SANmapping™
A feature of SANArray external controllers, SANmapping manages drive
allocation and access, and is similar to the programmable LUN Mapping
feature, which is incorporated into this feature. SANmapping is intended for
use in configurations in which multiple host computers attach to one or more
Mylex controllers or to a Storage Area Network (SAN) configuration.
SDRAM
Synchronous Dynamic Random Access Memory, a form of dynamic random
access memory (DRAM, a type of memory used in computers) that can be
coordinated or synchronized to the clock speed of the computer.
