Glossary
Ethernet hub
A device used to connect the HAFM server and the Directors it manages.
event code
A three-digit number that specifies the exact event that occurred. This code provides
information on system failures, such as hardware failures, failure locations, or general
information on normal system events.
Event Log
Record of significant events that have occurred on the Director or Switch (Director or Switch
Event Log) or through the
HAFM Management Services
application (HAFM Event Log).
There are two Event Logs: Director or Switch Event Log, and HAFM Event Log.
(1) Director or switch Event Log. Log displayed through the
Product Manager
application that
provides a history of events for an individual Director or Switch, such as system events,
degraded operation, FRU failures, FRU removals and replacements, port problems, Fibre
Channel link incidents, and HAFM server-to-product communication problems. All detected
software and hardware failures are recorded in the Event Log. The information is useful to
maintenance personnel for fault isolation and repair verification.
exchange
A term that refers to one of the Fibre Channel protocol “building blocks,” composed of one or
more nonconcurrent sequences.
expansion port
E_Port. Physical interface on a Fibre Channel switch within a fabric, that attaches to an E_Port
on another Fibre Channel switch through an interswitch link (ISL) to form a multiswitch
fabric. See also
fabric loop port
;
fabric port
;
generic port
;
hub port
;
node loop port
;
node port
;
segmented expansion port
.
extended distance feature
XDF. A means to extend the propagation distance of a fiber-optic signal.
fabric
Entity that interconnects node ports (N_Ports) and is capable of routing (switching) Fibre
Channel frames, using the destination ID information in the Fibre Channel frame header
accompanying the frames. A switch is the smallest entity that can function as a complete
switched fabric topology.
fabric element
Any active Director, Switch, or node in a switched fabric.
