Glossary remote notification A process by which a system is able to inform remote users and workstations of certain classes of events that occur on the system. E-mail notification and the configuration of simple network management protocol (SNMP) trap recipients are two examples of remote notification programs that can be implemented on director-class switches. remote user workstation Workstation, such as a personal computer (PC), using HAFM application and Product Manager application software that can access the HAFM server over a local area network (LAN) connection. rerouting delay An option that ensures that frames are delivered in order through the fabric to their destination. resource allocation time-out value R_A_TOV. R_A_TOV is a value used to time-out operations that depend on the maximum possible time that a frame could be delayed in a fabric and still be delivered. ring topology A logically circular, unidirectional transmission path without defined ends, in which control is distributed or centralized (D). See also token ring. RS-232 The Electronic Industry Association (EIA)-recommended specification for asynchronous serial interfaces between computers and communications equipment. It specifies both the number of pins and type of connection, but does not specify the electrical signals (D). S/390 mode The mode that is most useful when attaching to IBM S/390 Enterprise servers. See also open systems mode; operating mode. SAN See storage area network; system area network. SBAR See serial crossbar assembly. scalable Refers to how well a system can adapt to increased demands. For example, a scalable network system could start with just a few nodes but easily expands to thousands of nodes. Scalability is important because it allows the user to invest in a system with confidence that a business will not outgrow it. Refers to anything whose size can be changed. SCSI See small computer system interface. Glossary-32 embedded web server user guide
