NLM
NetWare Loadable Module. A program you can load
and unload while the server is running. Four types of
NLMs exist: management utilities and server
application modules, disk drivers, LAN drivers, and
name space NLMs.
Nonvolatile
Memory
A storage device that retains data without power
applied (or when the computer is turned off).
NTFS
A high-performance Windows NT file system.
ODI Drivers
Open Data-Link Interface drivers. Drivers found on
the NetWare Programs from Compaq diskette that
support media- and protocol-independent
communications. These drivers provide a standard
protocol transportation interface to share a single
network board without conflict.
On-line Spare
A hard drive used in drive mirroring, data guarding,
and distributed data guarding to provide drive
replacement for a failed drive without user
intervention.
Orphaned
Partitions
Orphaned partitions occur when a hard drive
containing the master partition fails. If a hard drive
containing a duplicate partition fails, the system
marks the master partition as unmirrored.
