832 Implementing the IBM Storwize V5000 Gen2 with IBM Spectrum Virtualize V8.1
Reliability is the degree to which the hardware remains free of faults. Availability is the ability
of the system to continue operating despite predicted or experienced faults. Serviceability is
how efficiently and nondisruptively broken hardware can be fixed.
Remote fabric
The remote fabric is composed of SAN components (switches, cables, and so on) that
connect the components (nodes, hosts, and switches) of the remote cluster together.
Significant distances can exist between the components in the local cluster and those
components in the remote cluster.
Remote Support Server and Client
Remote Support Client is a software toolkit that resides in IBM Storwize V5000 and opens a
secured tunnel to the Remote Support Server. Remote Support Server resides in the IBM
network and collects key health check and troubleshooting informations required by IBM
support personnel.
SAN Volume Controller
The IBM SAN Volume Controller (SVC) is an appliance that is designed for attachment to
various host computer systems. The SVC performs block-level virtualization of disk storage.
IBM Spectrum Virtualize is a software engine of SVC (and Storwize family) that performs
block-level virtualization of disk storage.
Secondary volume
Pertinent to remote copy, the volume in a relationship that contains a copy of data written by
the host application to the primary volume.
Secure Sockets Layer certificate
Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) is the standard security technology for establishing an encrypted
link between a web server and a browser. This link ensures that all data passed between the
web server and browsers remain private and to be able to create an SSL connection a web
server requires an SSL Certificate.
Security Key Lifecycle Manager
Security Key Lifecycle Manager (SKLM) centralizes, simplifies, and automates the encryption
key management process to help minimize risk and reduce operational costs of encryption
key management.
Serial-attached SCSI
Serial-attached Small Computer System Interface (SAS) is a method that is used in
accessing computer peripheral devices that employs a serial (one bit at a time) means of
digital data transfer over thin cables. The method is specified in the American National
Standard Institute standard called SAS. In the business enterprise, SAS is useful for access
to mass storage devices, particularly external hard disk drives.
Service Location Protocol
The Service Location Protocol (SLP) is an Internet service discovery protocol that enables
computers and other devices to find services in a local area network (LAN) without prior
configuration. It was defined in the request for change (RFC) 2608.
