Glossary
This section defines the terms used to describe the ASM user interface and program features.
Actions pane The right pane in the main window of the ASM user interface that provides a
list of actions, based on your current selection in the Content pane. Along with
other selectable items, the Actions pane provides access to storage-allocation
wizards, which help you allocate and configure storage.
Advanced window A window accessed by clicking the Advanced button in any of the
storage-allocation wizards or the Allocate Space Wizard. When accessed
from any of the storage-allocation wizards, the Advanced window allows you
to change the size of the allocated space and the default (recommended)
advanced configuration settings. When accessed from the Allocate Space
Wizard, the Advanced window allows you to change the size of the allocated
space, percent full warning threshold, and enforced allocated limit (shared
folders only).
allocated space Storage space that is being used by, or reserved for, application or shared
folder storage.
application server A server computer in a computer network dedicated to running certain software
applications whose job is to provide network access to software client/server
applications and, sometimes, the data that belongs to applications as well.
array Also known as a JBOD (just a bunch of disks). A group of hard drives in an
enclosure (chassis) that are controlled by an array controller.
array controller Controls reads and writes to the hard drives in an array.
backups A read-only copy of data copied to media, such as hard drives or magnetic
tape, for data protection.
A full backup copies all the data selected to be backed up. An incremental
backup copies only data selected to be backed up that has changed since the
last full backup.
Backups provide data protection in the event of system or hard drive failure,
because the data is stored on media separate from the system hard drives.
backup applica-
tion
An application used to create, manage, and monitor backups.
CIFS Common Internet file system. The protocol used in Windows environments for
shared folders.
Content pane The center pane in the main window of the ASM user interface that displays
storage utilization, and the storage status of application components and shared
folders.
data migration The process of moving data from one storage device to another, such as moving
application data from an application server to your HP All-in-One Storage
System. ASM supports automatic data migration for Exchange and SQL Server
data.
data protection Protects data from being corrupted or lost as a result of hard drive failure.
Methods used to provide data protection include RAID and backups.
