vaulting media

The process of storing media to a safe and remote place. The

 

media are brought back to the data center when they are

 

needed for restore or are ready for reuse in subsequent backups.

 

The vaulting procedure depends on your company's backup

 

strategy and policies for data protection/reliability.

verify

A function that lets you check whether the Data Protector data

 

on a specified medium is readable. Additionally, consistency

 

within each block can be checked if the backup was performed

 

with the cyclic redundancy check (CRC) option ON.

Virtual Controller

(HP StorageWorks EVA specific term) The firmware that manages

Software (VCS)

all aspects of storage system operation, including communication

 

with Command View EVA through the HSV controllers.

 

See also Command View (CV) EVA.

Virtual Device

(Microsoft SQL Server specific term) This is a SQL Server

Interface

programming interface that allows fast backup and restore of

 

large databases.

virtual disk

(HP StorageWorks EVA specific term) A unit of storage allocated

 

from an HP StorageWorks Enterprise Virtual Array storage pool.

 

Virtual disks are the entities that are replicated using the HP

 

StorageWorks Enterprise Virtual Array snapshot functionality.

 

See also source volume and target volume.

virtual full backup

An efficient type of synthetic backup where data is consolidated

 

using pointers instead of being copied. It is performed if all the

 

backups (the full backup, incremental backups, and the resulting

 

virtual full backup) are written to a single file library that uses

 

distributed file medium format.

Virtual Library

A disk-based data storage device hosting one or more virtual

System (VLS)

tape libraries (VTLs).

virtual server

A virtual machine in a cluster environment defined in a domain

 

by a network IP name and address. Its address is cached by

 

the cluster software and mapped to the cluster node that is

 

currently running the virtual server resources. This way all

 

requests for a particular virtual server are cached by a specific

 

cluster node.
