Glossary
Target
A SCSI device (usually the peripheral) that responds to an operation
requested by a SCSI initiator (usually the host system). SCSI peripherals
are targets, but for some commands (for example, a COPY command), the
peripheral may need to act temporarily as an initiator.
terminator
An electrical connection at each end of the SCSI bus composed of a set of
resistors (or possibly other components). Its function is to provide a pull-
up for open collector drivers on the bus, and also impedance matching to
prevent signal reflections at the ends of the cable. The SCSI bus requires
termination at both ends of the bus. One end of the SCSI bus is terminated
by the adapter’s internal termination. The other end should have a
terminator placed on the 68-pin high density SCSI connector on the last
SCSI peripheral. If this device is not terminated, data errors may occur.
Topology
The physical or logical layout of nodes on a network. FC topologies
include point-to-point, FC-AL, and Fabric. The FCR100 supports FC-AL
topology.
A status type in the FC Status Menu showing the type of FC topology
being used.
unload
The process where the Scalar Library causes a drive to eject a cartridge,
then uses the Media Picker to move the cartridge to a storage slot location.
View Node Name
A status type in the FC Status Menu showing the identification of the
node.
View Port Name
A status type in the FC Status Menu showing the identification of the port.
