single LUN hardware path. The string 64000/0xfa00.0x22 is an example of a LUN hardware path. LUN hardware paths are part of the agile view introduced in HP-UX 11i v3.

lunpath hardware The representation of a hardware path for a mass storage device. It is identical in format to a

pathlegacy hardware path up to the HBA. After the HBA, additional addressing is represented in hexadecimal format. The string 0/2/1/0.0x50001fe1500170ac.0x4017000000000000 is an example of a lunpath hardware path. Lunpath hardware paths are part of the agile view introduced in HP-UX 11i v3.

M

MAC address Stands for Media Access Control. A network card’s unique hardware number. Used to uniquely identify a network interface connected to a local area network.

make_[tapenet]_recovery

 

Collectively refers to the make_tape_recovery and make_net_recovery Ignite-UX commands.

make_boot_tape

An Ignite-UX command that creates a bootable tape that contains just enough information for a

 

system to boot and connect to an Ignite-UX server. See make_boot_tape(1M).

make_bundles

An Ignite-UX command that creates a bundle container for products in a depot. See

 

make_bundles(1M).

make_config

An Ignite-UX command that constructs Ignite-UX configuration files for Software Distributor depots.

 

See make_config(1M).

make_depots

An Ignite-UX command that builds a Software Distributor depot for use by other Ignite-UX tools

 

by copying bundles from a Software Distributor source. See make_depots(1M).

make_ipf_tape

An Ignite-UX command that creates a bootable tape for an Itanium-based system. The tape will

 

contain boot and installation components, but not a recovery archive. See make_ipf_tape(1M).

make_medialif

An Ignite-UX command that creates a file containing a LIF volume that is used to boot PA-RISC

 

systems. This file may then be copied to tape, CD, or DVD to create installation media. See

 

make_medialif(1M).

make_net_recovery

An Ignite-UX command that creates a recovery archive and system config file, and stores the

 

resultant recovery image on a system on the network. See make_net_recovery(1M).

make_sys_image

An Ignite-UX command that creates an archive of a system. See make_sys_image(1M).

make_tape_recovery

An Ignite-UX command that creates a recovery archive and system config file, and stores the

 

resultant recovery image on a local tape. See make_tape_recovery(1M).

manage_index

An Ignite-UX command that is used to manipulate an Ignite-UX INDEX or CINDEX file. See

 

manage_index(1M).

manifest

Details of a client's installation. It is available in a file on the client and the Ignite-UX server after

 

successful installation, and it may be displayed or regenerated with the print_manifest

 

command. See print_manifest(1M).

media image

The combined software source, config files, and boot information to be written to CD or DVD,

 

used when preparing installation media. It is a single large file in the HP-UX operating system

 

that is written to the medium and used for installation or recovery.

multipathing

The detection, correlation, and coordinated usage of multiple hardware paths leading to the

 

same LUN.

N

 

network boot

When a system boots the HP-UX install kernel over the network from an Ignite-UX server.

newconfig

The state of a file as it is stored in /usr/newconfig before it is moved into place and modified

 

to be system specific. Files in a newconfig state contain no information about the personality of

 

the system.

NFS

Stands for Network File System. Allows a client to perform transparent file access over the network.

NIC address

See MAC address.

NIS

Stands for Network Information Service. It allows access from any system to any system with a

 

single user identification and password.
