HSx drive

Any disk or tape drive connected to an HSx device (for example, an HSJ or HSG). A system

 

disk on an HSx drive can be shared by several computers in an OpenVMS Cluster environment.

Hyper-Threading

Supported on systems that have dual-core processors, this feature provides the ability for

 

processors to create a second virtual core that allows additional efficiencies of processing. For

 

example, a dual-core processor with Hyper-Threading active can run four threads.

iCAP

Instant Capacity. Supported on cell-based Integrity servers, an HP Utility Pricing Solutions

 

product whose pricing model is based on purchasing components (processors, cell boards, and

 

memory). Instant Capacity allows you to purchase and install additional components at a

 

discount from the regular purchase price, as the usage rights are not included. These Instant

 

Capacity components are inactive but installed and ready for use. When extra capacity is needed,

 

you pay the remainder of the regular purchase price for the usage rights (through purchasing

 

a Right to Use codeword) to activate the components. (If the regular price for the component

 

is reduced by the time the usage rights are purchased, the remainder price is proportionally

 

reduced, providing additional savings.) After obtaining usage rights, Instant Capacity processors

 

can be turned on by the Instant Capacity software or during installation.

 

Earlier versions of iCAP were referred to as Instant Capacity on Demand, or iCOD.

 

See also PPU, TiCAP.

iLO

InfoServer

A general-purpose disk storage server (virtual device server). It can make devices available to

 

client systems on the LAN. Client systems can connect to the virtual devices and use them as

 

though they are locally attached devices. OpenVMS systems connected to the same LAN can

 

boot from a virtual drive available from the InfoServer instead of from a local CD or DVD.

Kerberos

A network authentication protocol that provides authentication for applications using secret-key

 

crytpography. Kerberos is automatically installed with the OpenVMS operating system.

layered products

Products, including SIPs, provided by HP and third parties that can installed on an OpenVMS

 

system.

 

See also SIP.

local area

A configuration consisting of one or more computers that act as a MOP server and disk server,

OpenVMS

and a number of low-end computers that act as satellite nodes. The LAN connects all of the

Cluster system

computers. These computers share a single file system.

local drive

A drive, such as a CD, DVD, or disk drive, that is connected directly to a computer. If you have

 

a standalone computer, it is likely that all drives connected to the system are local drives.

logical CPU

An execution thread contained within a core on Integrity servers with Intel Itanium Dual-Core

 

processors.. With Hyper-Threading enabled, each core can contain multiple logical CPUs.

 

See also core, Hyper-Threading.

Maintenance

MCOE

Mission Critical Operating Environment. The tier of the Operating Environment for OpenVMS

 

for Integrity Servers that offers everything offered by the Enterprise Operating Environment

 

(EOE) plus clustering.

 

See also FOE, EOE, OE.

media

Any packaging agents capable of storing computer software (for example, compact discs,

 

magnetic tapes, floppy disks, disk packs, and tape cartridges).
