redundant array of independent disks (RAID)
A collection of two or more disk physical drives that present to the host an image of one or more
logical disk drives. In the event of a single physical device failure, the data can be read or regenerated
from the other disk drives in the array due to data redundancy.
recovery

reconstructing data or providing alternative routing through a different server.
recovery group (RG)

physically to two servers: a primary server and a backup server.
remote direct memory access (RDMA)
A direct memory access from the memory of one computer into that of another without involving
either one's operating system. This permits high-throughput, low-latency networking, which is
especially useful in massively-parallel computer clusters.
RGD
See recovery group data (RGD).
remote key management server (RKM server)
A server that is used to store master encryption keys.
RG
