OFC
Open Fibre Control.
OLM
Optical link module.
OS
Operating system.
PA
Physical address.
parity group
A parity group is a disk con
guration in which multiple disks work together to
provide redundancy. Synonymous with “system group.”
partition
Dividing a speci
c physical disk into two or more areas as if there are two
or more physical disks.
path
Paths are created by associating a port, a target, and a LUN ID with one or
more LDEVs.
PCI
Power control interface or peripheral component interconnect.
port
A physical connection that allows data to pass between a host and the system.
The number of ports on an XP system depends on the number of supported
I/O slots and the number of ports available per I/O adapter. The XP family
of systems supports Fibre Channel (FC) ports as well as other port types. Ports
are named by port group and port letter, such as CL1-A. CL1 is the group,
and A is the port letter.
P-P
Point-to-point.
PS
Power supply.
RS
Russellstoll®, a brand of electrical plugs and receptacles manufactured by
Thomas & Betts Corporation.
rack
The SVS200 rack that contains the basic system components, including the
controller and one disk chassis. The rack can contain a second optional disk
chassis.
RAID
Redundant system of independent disks.
RAID group
See “system group.”
RAID level
A RAID Level is one of the ways that disk drives are grouped together to improve
performance, data availability/reliability or both. RAID levels are de
ned from
RAID0 to RAID6. HP StorageWorks systems in the XP product family support
RAID1, RAID5 and RAID6. Not all of these RAID levels are supported by all XP
family members. Consult the owner’s guide or your HP representative for the
details of which RAID levels are supported by your speci
c XP system.
RAM
Random access memory.
RM
HP StorageWorks RAID Manager XP, a command line interface for managing
XP systems.

le
A
le containing a shell script.
SCSI
Small computer system interface.
shell script
A command sequence executed by a UNIX shell.
side
le
An area of cache used to store the data sequence number, record location,
record length, and queued control information.
SIM
Service information message.
