Enterprise Virtual
Array The Enterprise Virtual Array is a product that consists of one or more storage systems. Each storage
system consists of a pair of HSV controllers and the disk drives they manage. A storage system
within the Enterprise Virtual Array can be formally referred to as an Enterprise storage system,
or generically referred to as the storage system.
environmental
monitoring unit See EMU .
error code The portion of an EMU condition report that defines a problem.
ESD Electrostatic Discharge. The emission of a potentially harmful static electric voltage as a result of
improper grounding.
ESI Enclosure Services Interface. The SCSI-3 engineering services interface implementation developed
for HP products. A bus that connects the EMU to the disk drives.
ESP Enclosure Services Processor. An EMU that implements an enclosure’s services process.
event Any significant change in the state of the Enterprise storage system hardware or software
component reported by the controller to HP P6000 Command View.
Event Information
Packet See EIP .
Event Number See Evt No. .
Evt No. Event Number. A sequential number assigned to each Software Code Identification (SWCID)
event. It is a decimal number in the range 0-255.

Command View
GUI The graphical user interface (GUI) through which a user can control and monitor a storage system.
HP P6000 Command View can be installed on more than one storage management server in a
fabric. Each installation is a management agent. The client for the agent is a standard browser.
F
fabric A network of Fibre Channel switches or hubs and other devices.
fabric port A port which is capable of supporting an attached arbitrated loop. This port on a loop will have
the AL_PA hexadecimal address 00 (loop ID 7E), giving the fabric the highest priority access to
the loop. A loop port is the gateway to the fabric for the node ports on a loop.
failover See array controller failover or data replication group failover.
failsafe A safe state that devices automatically enter after a malfunction. Failsafe DR groups stop accepting
host input and stop logging write history if a group member becomes unavailable.
fan The variable speed airflow device that cools an enclosure or component by forcing ambient air
into an enclosure or component and forcing heated air out the other side.
