CLPR(Cache Logical Partition)

A function supported by the Hitachi USP series, Universal Storage Platform V/VM series,

Virtual Storage Platform series, Hitachi AMS2000/AMS/WMS/SMS series, HUS100 series,

and HUS VM for logically splitting up a cache. This function can split up a cache into

parity groups in the storage system, so that other parity groups do not affect the cache

performance.

cluster

A system of connecting multiple hosts with the same OS or platform (essentially, an

environment in which the same application can run) and treating them as one system.

D

Dev (Device)

A logical division of an LU that HDLM controls and operates.

A Dev is equivalent to a partition in Linux.

In Linux, each LU can be divided into more than one Dev.

Each Dev has a Dev number.

Depending on the access method, Devs are classified into two types: block devices and

character devices.

(See also: Dev number)

Dev number

A Dev number (the DNum column) in the configuration list in HDLM.

This number is assigned to each Dev within an LU. In Linux, a Dev number is called a

partition number.

The Dev number is set to 0 because HDLM manages Devs in units of LUs.

(See also: Dev)

domain

An environment in which Xen is used to manage OSs.

The domain that has management privileges for Xen is called domain0. The other

domains are called domainU.

E

emulation type

An LU type that is accessible from a host. Since an HDLM host is an open-system host

such as a PC or a UNIX computer, the HDLM host can access only the LUs that have

open-system emulation types.

For details on emulation types supported by a storage system, see the maintenance

manual for that particular storage system.
