Glossary

configuration file

A file that contains all of the settings pertaining to the Active Upgrade process for your system. You can create multiple configuration files, each for a different type of upgrade that you regularly perform on your system. You can also use nesting to incorporate the settings of one configuration file into another configuration file.

critical system resource

A system component, such as a hard disk or network adapter, that is required to run mission-critical applications.

custom action

A mechanism for controlling your critical applications during the Active Upgrade process. By specifying executable files and certain parameters in the Active Upgrade console, you can ensure that your applications are stopped or restarted at the appropriate times when the system is split or merged.

data disk

An internal RDR disk that is resynchronized from the Production Side to the Upgrade Side upon completion of the Active Upgrade process.

Data disks are available only on the Production Side while the system is running in split mode. They typically contain live data (for example, database files and transaction logs) required by your applications.

A disk that contains active Windows operating system components (boot partition, paging file) cannot be a data disk (see system disk).

duplex mode (duplexed)

The state of an ftServer system when most or all of its individual components are paired with redundant partner components that can keep the system operational if a hardware failure occurs.

It is safe to initiate an Active Upgrade on a duplexed system because redundant components continue to run your applications during the upgrade process.

element

Redundant segments of an ftServer system that contain components such as processors, hard drives, PCI slots, and certain I/O ports.

Each system comes with a minimum of two CPU elements and two I/O elements, usually distributed over two or more enclosures. The elements in an enclosure operate with each other, or, if necessary, with elements in another enclosure, to emulate a single logical system.
