Glossary

interface while on the other side there are parallel SCSI ports. The bridge or multiplexer enables SCSI packets to be moved between the Fibre Channel and parallel SCSI devices.

File Replication Service (FRS)

A Windows service that replicates the domain controller store logon scripts and group policies. FRS also enables replication of Distributed File System (DFS) shares between systems and allows any server to perform replication activity.

file version

The same file can be backed up multiple times in case of full backups and incremental backups (if the file changed). If the log level ALL is selected for backup, Data Protector retains one entry in the IDB for the filename itself and one for each version (date/time) of the file.

filesystem

The organization of files on a hard disk. A filesystem is backed up so that the file attributes and the file contents are stored on the backup media.

first level mirror (HP StorageWorks Disk Array XP specific term)

HP StorageWorks Disk Array XP allows up to three mirror copies of a Primary Volume and each of these copies can have additional two copies. The three

mirror copies are called first level mirrors.

See also Primary Volume, and MU numbers.

fnames.dat

The fnames.dat files of the IDB contain information on the names of the backed up files. Typically, these files occupy about 20% of the IDB, if filenames are stored.

formatting

A process that erases any data contained on a medium and prepares it for use with Data Protector. Information about media (media ID, description, and location) is saved in the IDB as well as on the respective media (media header). Data Protector media with protected data are not formatted until the protection expires or the media are unprotected/ recycled.

free pool

An auxiliary source of media for use by media pools when they run out of media. The media pools must be configured to use free pools.

full backup

A backup in which all selected objects are backed up, whether or not they have been recently modified.
