BC Process

(EMC Symmetrix specific term) A protected storage environment

 

solution that has defined specially configured EMC Symmetrix

 

devices as mirrors or Business Continuance Volumes to protect

 

data on EMC Symmetrix standard devices.

 

See also BCV.

BC VA

(HP StorageWorks Virtual Array specific term) Business Copy

 

VA allows you to maintain internal copies of HP StorageWorks

 

Virtual Array LUNs for data backup or data duplication within

 

the same virtual array. The copies (child or Business Copy LUNs)

 

can be used for various purposes, such as backup, data analysis

 

or development. When used for backup purposes, the original

 

(parent) LUNs are connected to the application system and the

 

Business Copy (child) LUNs are connected to the backup system.

 

See also HP StorageWorks Virtual Array LUN, application

 

system, and backup system.

BCV

(EMC Symmetrix specific term) Business Continuance Volumes,

 

or BCV devices, are dedicated SLDs that are pre-configured in

 

the ICDA on which the business continuation operation runs.

 

BCV devices are assigned separate SCSI addresses, differing

 

from the addresses used by the SLDs they mirror. The BCV

 

devices are used as splittable mirrors of the primary EMC

 

Symmetrix SLDs that need to be protected.

 

See also BC and BC Process.

Boolean operators

The Boolean operators for the full text search functionality of the

 

online Help system are AND, OR, NOT, and NEAR. Used when

 

searching, they enable you to define your query precisely by

 

creating a relationship between search terms. If no operator is

 

specified in a multi-word search, AND is used by default. For

 

example, the query manual disaster recovery is equivalent to

 

manual AND disaster AND recovery.

boot volume/disk/

A volume/disk/partition with files required for the initial step

partition

of the boot process. Microsoft terminology defines the boot

 

volume/disk/partition as a volume/disk/partition containing

 

the operating system files.

BRARCHIVE

(SAP R/3 specific term) An SAP R/3 backup tool that allows

 

you to archive redo log files. BRARCHIVE also saves all the logs

 

and profiles of the archiving process.
