HP XP10000, XP128 manual OPEN-x, Path, Port, Remote console PC

LDEV	Logical device. An LDEV is created when a RAID group is carved into pieces
	according to the selected host emulation mode (that is, OPEN-3, OPEN-8,
	OPEN-L). The number of resulting LDEVs depends on the selected
	emulation mode. The term LDEV is often used synonymously with the term
	volume.
LUN	Logical unit number. A LUN results from mapping a SCSI logical unit
	number, port ID, and LDEV ID to a RAID group. The size of the LUN is
	determined by the emulation mode of the LDEV and the number of LDEVs
	associated with the LUN. For example, a LUN associated with two OPEN-
	3 LDEVs has a size of 4,693 MB.
LUSE	A LUN is normally associated with only a single LDEV. The LUSE feature
	allows a LUN to be associated with 1 to 36 LDEVs. Essentially, LUSE makes
	it possible for applications to access a single large pool of storage. The LUSE
	feature is available when the HP StorageWorks LUN Configuration Manager
	product is installed.
OFC	Open Fibre Control.
OPEN-x	A general term describing any one of the supported OPEN emulation
	modes (for example, OPEN-L).
OS	Operating system.
PA	Physical address.
path	“Path” and “LUN” are synonymous. Paths are created by associating a port,
	a target, and a LUN ID with one or more LDEVs.
port	A physical connection that allows data to pass between a host and the disk
	array. The number of ports on an XP disk array depends on the number of
	supported I/O slots and the number of ports available per I/O adapter. The
	XP family of disk arrays supports Fibre Channel (FC) ports as well as other
	port types. Ports are named by port group and port letter, such as CL1-A.
	CL1 is the group, and A is the port letter.
RAID	Redundant array of independent disks.
remote console PC	The PC running HP StorageWorks Remote Control XP.
