Navigation pane

The left pane in the main window of the ASM user interface that allows you

to quickly navigate between HP All-in-One Storage System Management

applications.

NFS

Network file system. The protocol used in most Unix environments to share

folders or mounts. The Create a Shared Folder Wizard does not create NFS

shares, but NFS shares can be created using the Shared Folder MMC snap-in.

percent full warn-

ing threshold

Percentage of capacity for a storage area (storage allocated to an application

component or shared folder) at which an alert is generated. This alert is

displayed in the Content pane and sent to the Windows Event Log. See

Setting a percent full warning threshold

on page 30 for more information.

Public store

The component of a Microsoft Exchange storage group that contains public

folder data.

RAID

Redundant array of intelligent disks. Two or more hard drives configured to

provide a storage with resilience to hard drive failure through the use of RAID

striping and parity disks.

RAID level

See

Table 7

for RAID level descriptions.

RAID striping

Writing data to hard drives in an array by interleaving bytes or groups of bytes

across the multiple hard drives. This allows more than one disk to be read from

or written to simultaneously, which increases the performance.

RAID stripe size

The number of bytes or kilobytes of data in a RAID stripe (block of data).

restore

To recover lost data using a backup.

revert

To return stored data to a previous state using a snapshot.

scaling

Changes the display proportions of application component and shared folder

storage in the Content pane. You can choose to scale by the size (capacity) of

the application component and shared folder’s storage space, or scale them all

the same. To change the scale setting, select Tools > Options.

size

The amount of storage that ASM allocates and configures for an application

component or shared folder. To change the size of the allocated storage for

an application component or shared folder, select the application component

or shared folder in the Content pane and then select Allocate Space in the

Actions pane.

snapshot

A read-only copy of a volume at a specific point in time. Unlike a backup, data

is not copied to any media during a snapshot. Instead, when a file is modified

after a snapshot is created, the new updates are written to a new location. The

file-system maintains records and pointers to keep track of the snapshot data

and file changes. A snapshot takes less than a second to create.

Status bar

The area located at the bottom of the ASM user interface that displays server

information and system alerts.

tape library

An enclosure filled with magnetic tape cartridges, tape drives, and a robot(s).

The tapes are electronically labeled for identification and stored in library slots

when not in use. When data needs to be written or read from a tape, the robot

loads the tape cartridge into an available tape drive in the library.

Task Viewer

A window that displays completed tasks, scheduled tasks, and errors. To open

the Task Viewer, select Tools > Task Viewer.

toolbar

The area below the menu bar that contains icons for commonly-used commands.

The toolbar is the Microsoft Management Console toolbar; ASM is a snap-in

hosted by the Microsoft Management Console.
