flash memory
A type of memory that contains essential firmware and nonessential firmware.
FRU information record (FIR)
A collection of information that every field-replaceable unit (FRU) carries with it, such as
part number, revision, track ID, and media access control (MAC) address.
G
gateway IP address
that describes a gateway. A gateway specifies which router will receive
communication destined for addresses in an unknown subnet.
Gigabit Ethernet ServerNet adapter (GESA)
A single-port ServerNet adapter that provides 1000 megabits/second (Mbps) data transfer
rates between HP NonStop™ systems and Ethernet LANs. A GESA can be directly
installed in slots 51 through 54 of an I/O enclosure and slots 53 and 54 of a processor
enclosure.
Gigabit Ethernet 4-port ServerNet adapter (G4SA)
A multiport ServerNet adapter that provides 1000 megabits/second (Mbps) data transfer
rates between HP NonStop™ systems and Ethernet LANs. The G4SA is installed in slots
1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 of an
module enclosure (IOAM enclosure)
, so a total of 10 G4SAs can be installed in an
enclosure. The G4SA is the only LAN adapter supported for the IOAM enclosure.
Although the G4SA implements the
Ethernet 4 ServerNet adapter (E4SA)
Gigabit Ethernet ServerNet adapter (GESA)
functions, it cannot be installed in an HP NonStop™ S-series enclosure.
globally unique ID (GUID)
A unique, read only number stored in nonvolatile memory (SEEPROM) on a ServerNet II
Switch at the time of manufacture. The GUID also appears on the bar code label. This
number can be used programmatically to identify the switch.
group
Part of the group, module, slot naming convention for uniquely identifying the logical
location of a component within a system. A group is a subset of a system and contains
one or more modules. A group does not necessarily correspond to a single physical
object, such as an enclosure. For example, an HP NonStop™ S-series processor
enclosure typically includes only one group number, but a modular cabinet can contain
several enclosures that each might belong to different groups.
