Glossary
adapter
The board that interfaces between the
host system and the target devices.
Adapter is synonymous with
host bus
adapter (HBA) , host adapter , and a dapter
board .
adapter port
A port on the adapter board.
CLI
Command line interface. A program inter-
face driven by entering commands and
parameters.
Converged Network Adapter
QLogic Converged Network Adapters.
support both data networking (TCP/IP)
and storage networking (Fibre Channel)
traffic on a single I/O adapter using two
new technologies:
Enhanced Ethernet and
Fibre Channel over Ethernet ( FCoE ).
command line interface
See CLI .
device
A target , typically a disk drive. Hardware
such as a disk drive, tape drive, printer, or
keyboard that is installed in or connected
to a system. In Fibre Channel, a
target
device.
driver
The software that interfaces between the
file system and a physical data storage
device or network media.
Enhanced Ethernet
Also called data center Ethernet or
converged enhanced Ethernet . Refers to
new enhancements to the existing
Ethernet standard that eliminate Ethernet’s
inherently lossy nature and make 10Gb
Ethernet a viable storage networking
transport.
Ethernet
The most widely used LAN technology that
transmits information between computer,
typically at speeds of 10 and 100 million
bits per second (Mbps).
Enhanced Transition Services
Enhanced Transition Services (ETS)
controls the actual bandwidth allocation at
the network port. The bandwidth allocation
under ETS is typically 50 percent for FCoE
traffic and 50 percent for Non-FCoE traffic
(NIC + iSCSI). This means that NPAR QoS
allocations among the NIC partitions for a
given port, allocate a percentage of the
Non-FCoE portion of the bandwidth.
