control unit
To organize the storage space attached to the DKC, you can group similarly
con
gured logical devices (LDEVs) with unique control unit images (CUs).
CUs are numbered sequentially. The system supports a certain number of
CUs, depending on the system model. Each CU can manage multiple LDEVs.
Therefore, to uniquely identify a particular LDEV requires both the CU number
and the LDEV number.
CU
Control unit.
CVS
Custom volume size. CVS devices (OPEN-x CVS) are custom volumes con
gured
using system management software to be smaller than normal
xed-size OPEN
system volumes. Synonymous with volume size customization (VSC).
disk adapter
(DKA)
Synonymous with the term ACP.
disk unit (DKU)
The system hardware that houses the system physical disks.
disk controller
(DKC)
The system hardware that houses the channel adapters and service processor
(SVP).
disk recovery and
restore unit (DRR)
The unit responsible for data recovery and restoration in the event of a cache
failure.
disk group
The physical disk locations associated with a parity group.
disk type
The manufacturing label burned into the physical disk controller
rmware. In
most cases, the disk type is identical to the disk model number.
emulation modes
The logical devices (LDEVs) associated with each RAID group are
assigned an emulation mode that makes them operate like OPEN
system disk drives. The emulation mode determines the size of an LDEV.

expanded LUN
A LUN is normally associated with only a single LDEV. The LUSE feature allows
a LUN to be associated with 1 to 36 LDEVs. Essentially, LUSE makes it possible
for applications to access a single large pool of storage. The LUSE feature is
available when the HP StorageWorks LUN Con
guration Manager product is
installed.
ExSA
Extended serial adapter.
failover
Disconnecting a failed unit or path and replacing it with an alternative unit or
path in order to continue functioning.
FC
Fibre Channel.
FC-AL
Fibre Channel arbitrated loop.
FCP
Fibre Channel Protocol.
fence level
A level for selecting rejection of a write I/O request from the host according to
the condition of mirroring consistency.
