Glossary

offline diagnostics

Diagnostics that only operate in stand alone mode. User operations cannot take place with

offline diagnostics running.

offline sequence

OLS. (1) Sequence sent by the transmitting port to indicate that it is attempting to initialize a

link and has detected a problem in doing so. (2) Sequence sent by the transmitting port to

indicate that it is offline.

offline state

When the Switch or Director is in the offline state, all the installed ports are offline. The ports

transmit an offline sequence (OLS) and they cannot accept a login got connection from an

attached device. Contrast with

online state

OLS

See

offline sequence

online

Referring to data stored on the system so it is available immediately to the user.

online diagnostics

Diagnostics that can be run by the customer engineer while the operational software is

running. These diagnostics do not impact user operations.

online state

When the Switch or Director is in the online state, all of the unblocked ports are allowed to log

in to the fabric and begin communicating. Devices can connect to the Switch or Director if the

port is not blocked and can communicate with another attached device if both devices are in

the same zone, or if the default zone is enabled. Contrast with

offline state

Open Systems Architecture

OSI. A model that represents a network as a hierarchical structure of functional layers. Each

layer provides a set of functions that can be accessed and used by the layer above. Layers are

independent, in that implementation of a layer can be changed without affecting other layers

(D).

open systems management server

OSMS. An optional feature that can be enabled on the Director or Switch through the

Product

Manager

application. When enabled, host control and management of the Director or Switch

are provided through an Open System Interconnection (OSI) device attached to a Director or

Switch port.

open systems mode

The mode that is used for HP or open fabrics. See also

operating mode

;

S/390 mode

(S/390

mode).
