server blades Thin, modular, self-contained computer servers containing one or more microprocessors and
memory. Server blades are designed for high density and eliminate the need for many
components such as power cords and network cables that are present in traditional rack-mount
systems. HP server blades support technologies such as hot-plug hard-drives, multiple I/O
cards, multi-function network interconnects and Integrated Lights Out.
See also BladeSystem, BladeSystem enclosure.
server complex The hardware of a cell-based server that includes all cells, I/O expansion cabinets, cables, cabinet
hardware, fans, and power and utilities components. The complex can support multiple instances
of an operating system by means of nPartitions.
See also cell, nPartition, server complex.

SIP System Integrated Product. A product provided by HP that can be installed or upgraded as
part of the OpenVMS installation or upgrade. SIPs include required products, such as CDSA,
Kerberos, and the base kit for Availability Manager;and optional products such as DECwindows
Motif, DECnet-Plus, DECnet Phase IV, TCP/IP Services for OpenVMS, and on OpenVMS I64
systems only, WBEM Services for OpenVMS and WBEM Providers for OpenVMS.
See also layered products.
source drive The drive that holds the operating system distribution media during an upgrade or installation.
This can be a local drive or an InfoServer. The drive contains either the operating system CD
or DVD, or a copy of it.
SSL Secure Sockets Layer. The open-standard security protocol for secure transfer of sensitive
information over the Internet. HP SSL offers a high degree of confidentiality by allowing server
authentication, client authentication, and an encrypted connection that requires all information
sent between client and server to be encrypted by the sending software and decrypted by the
receiving software. HP SSL for OpenVMS is automatically installed with the OpenVMS operating
system. For more information, see the HP Open Source Security for OpenVMS, Volume 2: HP SSL
for OpenVMS manual.
standalone
system
A computer system consisting of a single computer that is not part of a network or OpenVMS
Cluster.
system disk The disk from which OpenVMS is typically booted. During an installation or upgrade, this disk
is the target disk because it receives files from the source drive. After installation or upgrade,
the target drive is booted and becomes the system disk.
See also target drive.

target drive The drive that holds the system disk during an upgrade or installation, or the drive you designate
when backing up the system disk.
TCP/IP Services
for OpenVMS
HP standard implementation of the TCP/IP and NFS networking protocols, integrated with the
OpenVMS operating system installation. Provides interoperability and resource sharing among
systems running OpenVMS, UNIX, Windows, and other operating systems that support TCP/IP.
TCP/IP provides a comprehensive suite of functions and applications that support
industry-standard protocols for heterogeneous network communications and resource sharing.
See also DECnet Phase IV, DECnet-Plus.
TDC The Performance Data Collector for HP OpenVMS (TDC) collects and manages configuration
and performance data for analysis by other applications. TDC_RT Version 2.2 or later is a
run-time only (base) variant of the TDC software that is installed automatically with the
OpenVMS operating system for use on specific operating system platforms. By default, data is
collected in a file. Subsequently, user applications can retrieve the data from the file.
