In system enclosures with power shelves, the component located in the power shelf that
converts standard AC line voltage into DC voltage and delivers it to the CRUs in that
enclosure, which in turn supply the DC voltages needed by the group components in the
enclosure.

primary processor

The processor that is designated as owning the

ServerNet addressable controller (SAC)

connected to separate processors running the NonStop operating system. The primary
processor is the processor that has direct control over the SAC.

primitive state

The state of a PE that is not a member of the voting set of PEs. In this state the PE cannot
perform any I/O, voting or rendezvous. It may communication with other PEs using
primitive communication mechanisms.

problem incident report

A type of

incident report

that notifies you of a problem on your server or ServerNet

cluster. A problem incident report is generated when changes occur that could directly
affect the availability of resources. Problem incident reports include the system
configuration file and might include other attachments, such as alarm logs and processor
diagnostic information.

processor

A functional unit of a computer that reads program instructions, moves data between
processor memory and the input/output controllers, and performs arithmetic operations.
Processors are sometimes referred to as central processing units (CPUs), but a NonStop
server has multiple cooperating processors rather than a single CPU.
