resource instance The actual monitorable resource. For example, /net/ interfaces/lan/status/lan0 may refer to a particular network interface installed on the monitored system.

resource monitor A framework for selecting resources of interest and monitoring them according to the user's criteria. When the resource value matches the user's criteria, a notification is sent according to the user's instructions.

The process that is used to obtain the status of a resource and send event notifications if appropriate. A monitor checks resources on the local system. The resource monitor maps the physical resource into a standard interface understood by the HA subsystem.

S-T

target The target application is notified when a monitored resource reaches the condition for which notification was requested. For example, a target application could be MC/ServiceGuard or IT/Operations (ITO).

U-Z

volume group In LVM, a set of physical volumes whose extents are grouped together and then made available to

users as logical volumes. A volume group can be activated by only one node at a time unless you are using MC/ LockManager. MC/ServiceGuard can activate a volume group when it starts a package. A given disk can belong to only one volume group. A logical volume can belong to only one volume group.
