CMS
Central management server. A system in the management domain that executes the HP Systems
Insight Manager software software. All central operations within HP SIM are initiated from
this system.
command line
interface
See CLI.
complex
A complex includes one or more cabinets that are cabled together and all of the hardware
resources that they contain. A complex has a single
See also server, system.
constraints
Resource allocation restrictions imposed by either the customer (for example,
placement
restrictions), or the HP Insight Dynamics suite.
See also policy.
core
The actual data-processing engine within a processor. A single processor might have multiple
cores, and a core might support multiple execution threads.
See also processor.
demand profile
A set of resource-demand readings made at regular intervals for some period of time. The
demand profile of a
,
, or
is used when doing capacity planning. Demand
profiles can be based on historical data or computed as part of a forecast.
deploy
1.
In HP Systems Insight Manager software, to implement one or more components such as
software, drivers, or licenses, rendering them under control of HP SIM.
discovery
1.
In system management applications, the process of finding and identifying network objects.
In HP Systems Insight Manager software, discovery finds and identifies all the HP systems
within a specified network.
failover
The operation that takes place when a primary service (network, storage, or CPU) fails, and
the application continues operation on a secondary unit.
forecast
A prediction of
utilization and
for some future time.
forecast data
range
A time interval specifying the set of historical data to use for generating a forecast.
forecast model
A combination of a
and a set of
that are used to
estimate future utilization.
Global Workload
Manager
See gWLM.
guest
See virtual machine.
guest OS
The operating system that is running on a
.
GUI
Graphical User Interface. A visually-oriented user interface in which components and actions
can be selected by clicking on objects and menus instead of typing command lines.
See also CLI.
gWLM
HP Insight Global Workload Manager software for Integrity. The HP Insight Dynamics
application that allows you to centrally define resource-sharing
that you can use across
multiple HP servers. These policies increase system utilization and facilitate controlled sharing
of system resources. gWLM's monitoring abilities provide both real-time and historical
monitoring of the resource allocation.
HA
High availability. The ability of a server or partition to continue operating despite the failure
of one or more components. High availability requires redundant resources, such as CPU
resources and memory, in specific combinations.
