allocation of resources to the partition can be set using HP Insight Global Workload Manager
software for Integrity (gWLM).
server blades
Thin, modular, self-contained computer servers, containing one or more microprocessors and
memory. Server blades are designed for high density and eliminate many components such as
power cords and network cables that are present in traditional rack-mount systems. HP
BladeSystem
supports technologies such as hot-plug hard-drives, multiple I/O cards,
multi-function network interconnects and Integrated Lights Out.
Service Processor
An independent support processor for HP servers that support
nPartitions
. The Service Processor
provides a menu of service-level commands, plus commands to reset and reboot nPartitions
and configure various parameters.
The Service Processor in HP servers is sometimes called the Management Processor (MP) or
the Guardian Service Processor (GSP).
Serviceguard
cluster
An HP Serviceguard cluster is a networked grouping of HP 9000 or HP Integrity servers (host
systems known as nodes) having sufficient redundancy of software and hardware that a single
point of failure will not significantly disrupt service.
Serviceguard
package
Packages are the means by which HP Serviceguard starts and halts configured applications. A
package is a collection of services, disk volumes and IP addresses that are managed by
Serviceguard to ensure they are available.
Serviceguard
workload
A
monitored workload
associated with a
Serviceguard cluster
and a particular
package
within the
cluster. The workload (and the utilization data reported) follows the package it is associated
with as it moves between the nodes of the cluster.
SMI-S
Storage Management Initiative Specification. SMI-S delivers open storage network management
interface technology in order to have “all storage managed by the SMI interface” as the unifying
factor between all objects that must be managed in a storage area network and the tools used
to manage them.
socket
(CPU socket). The physical chip carrier on the circuit board that houses a CPU chip. The CPU
may consist of multiple
cores
.
SRD
Shared resource domain. A collection of
compartments
that share system resources managed by
HP Insight Global Workload Manager software for Integrity (gWLM). The compartments can
be
nPartitions
,
virtual partitions
,
virtual machines
,
processor sets (PSETs)
or
Fair-Share Scheduler
(FSS) groups
.
A server containing nPartitions can be an SRD as long as nPartition requirements are met. These
requirements are detailed in the gWLM Getting the Most out of gWLM topic.
A server or an nPartition divided into virtual partitions can be an SRD for its virtual partition
compartments. A
VM Host
can be an SRD to its virtual machines. Similarly, a server, an
nPartition, or a virtual partition containing PSETs can be an SRD for its PSET compartments.
Finally, a server, an nPartition, or a virtual partition containing FSS groups can be an SRD for
its FSS-group compartments.
A complex with nPartitions can hold multiple SRDs. For example, if the complex is divided
into nPartitions named Par1 and Par2, Par1's compartments could be virtual partitions, while
Par2's compartments are PSETs.
SSL
Secure Sockets Layer. Protocol for validating identity and for creating an encrypted connection
between a server and a Web browser.
system
A server,
nPartition
,
virtual partition
, or
virtual machine
that is running an instance of an
operating system.
1.
2.
Entities on the network that communicate through TCP/IP or IPX. To manage a system,
some type of management protocol (for example, SNMP, DMI or
WBEM
) must be present
on the system. Examples of systems include servers, workstations, desktops, portables,
routers, switches, hubs and gateways.
TiCAP
Temporary Instant Capacity. An HP product that enables customers to purchase prepaid core
activation rights for a specified (temporary) period of time. Temporary capacity is sold in 30
processing-day increments. TiCAP was formerly known as “TiCOD”.
