GLM
Gigabyte link module.
HA
High availability.
HBA
Host bus adapter. A built-in function or a card installed in a PC or other host
computer to enable connection of the host to the SAN.
host mode
Each port can be con
gured for a particular host type. These modes are
represented as two-digit hexadecimal numbers. For example, host mode 08
represents an HP-UX host.

I/O
Input/output (applies to an operation or device).
LAN
Local area network.
LD, LDEV
Logical device. An LDEV is created when a RAID group is carved into pieces
according to the selected host emulation mode (that is, OPEN-3, OPEN-8,
OPEN-9). The number of resulting LDEVs depends on the selected emulation
mode. The term LDEV is often used synonymously with the term volume.
LED
Light emitting diode.
local disk
A disk in the host.
LU
Logical unit.
LUN
Logical unit number. A LUN results from mapping a SCSI logical unit number,
port ID, and LDEV ID to a RAID group. The size of the LUN is determined by the
emulation mode of the LDEV, and the number of LDEVs associated with the LUN.
For example, a LUN associated with two OPEN-3 LDEVs has a size of 4,693 MB.
