System board

The hardware resources of a PSB or an XSB. A System board is used

 

to describe the hardware resources for operations such as domain

 

construction and identification. In this manual, this refers to the XSB.

Uni-XSB

One of the division types of a PSB. Uni-XSB is a name for when a PSB

 

is logically only one unit (undivided status). It is a default value

 

setting for the division type for a PSB. The division type can be

 

changed by using the XSCF command setupfru(8). Uni-XSB may be

 

used to describe a PSB division type or status.

Quad-XSB

One of the division types of a PSB. Quad-XSB is a name for when a

 

PSB is logically divided into four parts. The division type can be

 

changed by using the XSCF command setupfru(8). Quad-XSB may

 

be used to describe a PSB division type or status.
