regular

Application Discovery recognizes regular expressions constructed using Perl 5 or POSIX syntax

expressions

and semantics.

running

An application that is continually or intermittently active and able to consume resources.

application

 

 

server

1.

Physical server: Hardware that can run one or more operating systems, including a

 

 

partitionable complex. Also, hardware that can run an instance of the vPars monitor. Server

 

 

hardware includes one or more cabinets containing all the available processing cores,

 

 

memory, I/O, and power and cooling components. HP Integrity servers include two types

 

 

of server hardware: standalone servers and cell-based servers.

 

2.

Virtual server: A software-based virtual environment that can run an operating system.

 

 

A virtual server includes a subset of the server hardware resources, including cores,

 

 

memory, and I/O. Virtual servers may be virtual partitions under vPars or virtual machines

 

 

under Integrity VM .

 

3.

HP Systems Insight Manager software uses the term “server” for any standalone server,

 

 

nPartition, or virtual server that is running an instance of an operating system or an instance

 

 

of the vPars monitor.

 

See also system.

Serviceguard

A monitored workload associated with a Serviceguard cluster and a particular Serviceguard

workload

package within the cluster. The workload (and the utilization data reported) follows the package

 

it is associated with as it moves between the nodes of the cluster.

SSL

Secure Sockets Layer. Protocol for validating identity and for creating an encrypted connection

 

between a server and a Web browser.

system

1.

A server, nPartition, virtual partition, or virtual machine that is running an instance of an

 

 

operating system.

 

2.

Entities on the network that communicate through TCP/IP or IPX. To manage a system,

 

 

some type of management protocol (for example, SNMP, DMI, or WBEM) must be present

 

 

on the system. Examples of systems include servers, workstations, desktops, portables,

 

 

routers, switches, hubs, and gateways.

 

See also server.

template

An HP-supplied or user-defined set of rules, properties, or metadata that describe an object in

 

a computing network.

 

In Application Discovery, templates specify the data collection and matching rules to be

 

 

used to define and discover an application.

 

When referring to a logical server, a template is the collection of information that defines

 

 

the logical server and its attributes. A template logical server has no actual resources

 

 

associated with it.

unmatched

A process that Application Discovery can discover that does not match existing templates or

process

packages that Application Discovery is using for discovery and monitoring. Unmatched

 

processes might include custom and third-party applications.

virtual machine

A software entity provided by HP Integrity Virtual Machines, VMware ESX, or Microsoft Virtual

 

Server. This technology allows a single server or (with Integrity Virtual machines) nPartition to

 

act as a VM Host for multiple individual virtual machines, each running its own instance of an

 

operating system (referred to as a guest OS). Virtual machines are managed systems in HP

 

Insight Dynamics suite.

virtual partition

A software partition of a server, or of a single nPartition, where each virtual partition can run its

 

own instance of an operating system. A virtual partition cannot span an nPartition boundary.

 

See also nPartition, virtual machine.

visibility

Application Discovery makes it possible for you to control the amount of data appearing on

 

user interface screens by letting you determine what applications, packages, or hosts will be

 

visible in the user interface or not. Currently, visibility settings are global in nature, which

 

means they apply to all screens in Application Discovery and are not specific to a particular

 

user or job role.
