Glossary
Automatic Server
Recovery (ASR)
A server feature designed to automatically restart the server after a critical hardware or
software error. If a critical error occurs, the server records the error in the Server Health Logs,
reboots the system, and pages (if a modem is installed in the server).
Client A computer connected to a server on the network.
Community String The SNMP Community String is similar to a password, offering a limited amount of protection
for the SNMP data.
HP Management
Agents for Servers
Software that can query a manageable server and provide information that responds to SNMP
requests for data.
HP Utilities HP Utilities have the capability to set up or modify the system and include various diagnostic
programs.
Corrected Memory
Log
This log contains a list of corrected memory errors.
Desktop Management A feature of HP Systems Insight Manager that allows you to monitor HP PCs being used as
clients.
In-band Refers to the capacity to deliver information through existing network hardware. Synonymous
with “on the network.”
Logical Drive Multiple physical drives connected in a HP Drive Array to the same controller and combined to
create logical drives. All available physical drive capacity is used by the logical drive as if it
were a larger drive subsystem. By combining several physical drives, special fault tolerance
and performance features can be used.
Managed Device A device managed by a management console. Devices include servers, clients, routers,
switches, and hubs. Servers and clients cannot be managed devices unless they have HP
Management Agents installed.
Management
Information Base (MIB)
The document or file that defines all manageable traps known to the management agent and
management application.
Management Console The PC, workstation, or server that is running HP Systems Insight Manager.
Monitored Item The item that HP Insight Manager manages or monitors, or the information that HP System
Insight Manager collects.
NetWare Peripheral
Architecture (NWPA)
The goal of the NetWare Peripheral Architecture (NWPA) is to provide NetWare Version 4.x,
and IntranetWare customers with broader and more reliable driver support for host adapters
and storage devices.
NetWare Loadable
Module (NLM)
Executables that run under the Novell NetWare operating system.
Network Interface
Controller (NIC)
An adapter card installed in a PC, workstation, or server that allows the PC or workstation to
communicate with other devices connected to the same network. This term usually implies a
local area network (LAN) adapter card.
Out of Band The capacity to deliver information by modem. Synonymous with “off the network.”
Physical Drive Multiple physical drives connected in a HP Array Controller to the same controller and
combined to create logical drives. The logical drives use all of the available physical drive
capacity as if it were a larger drive subsystem. By combining several physical drives, you can
use special fault tolerance and performance features.
Point-to-Point Protocol
(PPP)
A standard defined by the Internet Engineering Task Force. PPP provides a standard method
for transporting multiple protocols over a point-to-point link.
