NetView licensed program can be used to
provide network management services for
OSI Communications Subsystem. (2) A
network management product that can
provide automated operations and rapid
notification of events.
network
A configuration of data processing
devices and software connected for
information interchange.
network server
In a local area network, a personal
computer that provides access to files for
all of the workstations in the network.
node
In Fibre Channel technology, a
communicating device.
node card
Within the TS3500 Tape Library, one of
four circuit assemblies (accessor controller
card, motor driver assembly, Medium
Changer card pack, and operator panel
assembly) that communicate with each
other.
nominal
Approximate.
nominal power
The amount of power (in kilowatts) that
the TS3500 Tape Library dissipates during
normal operation.
non-addressable cartridge storage slot
See
inaccessible cartridge storage slot
.
nondisruptive firmware update
The ability to update drive or library
firmware without scheduling downtime.
The TS3500 Tape Library provides the
ability to perform a nondisruptive update
for its library firmware, as well as
firmware for all 3592 tape drives and LTO
Ultrium 2 and newer Ultrium tape drives.
non-volatile memory
Types of memory that retain their
contents when the power is turned off.
ROM is nonvolatile, whereas RAM is
volatile.
O
Oersted
The unit of magnetic field strength in the
unrationalized centimeter-gram-second
(cgs) electromagnetic system. The Oersted
is the magnetic field strength in the
interior of an elongated, uniformly
wound solenoid that is excited with a
linear current density in its winding of
one abamper per 4
π
centimeters of axial
length.
operating environment
The temperature, relative humidity rate,
and wet bulb temperature of the room in
which the TS3500 Tape Library routinely
conducts processing.
operating system
The master computer control program
that translates the user's commands and
allows software application programs to
interact with the computer's hardware.
operator panel
A functional unit that controls the tape
library. The unit's LCD touchscreen
provides information about the operation
of the TS3500 Tape Library, and one or
two I/O stations for inserting and
removing cartridges.
operator panel controller
Within the TS3500 Tape Library, a circuit
board that facilitates communication
between the accessor controller and the
operator panel. The controller provides
input to and output from the LCD, and
senses and locks the I/O stations. In
addition, the LCD activity and service
menus are executed in the operator panel
controller with support from the accessor
controller and the drives (via the Medium
Changer card packs).
optimized dual gripper
An electromechanical device that is
mounted on the pivot assembly and gets
or puts cartridges from or to a storage
slot, tape drive, or I/O station.
P
partition
A fixed-size division of storage.
patch panel
Located at the rear of the base or
expansion frame in a TS3500 Tape Library,
an optional unit that houses the fiber
cable connections between the servers and
the individual drives.
Pause key
On the touchscreen of the TS3500 Tape
Library, a touch key that causes the
