INTEL® SERVER MANAGER 8.40 SERVER GUIDE FOR WINDOWS
Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol. The basic protocol used for Internet (and
network) communication.
threshold
A configurable value that, if passed, can trigger an alert action. You can set the thresholds for
some system events, such as available disk space and memory.
U
UDP
User Datagram Protocol. A connectionless transport-layer protocol commonly used in the TCP/IP
protocol family. Unlike TCP, when a UDP packet is sent over the network, UDP makes no effort
to verify that the packet was successfully received on the other end.
UNC
Universal Naming Convention or Uniform Naming Convention. A format for specifying the location
of resources (such as computers and printers) on a network. A UNC name uses this format:
\\computer name\shared resource pathname.
Example: \\My computer\My documents\file.txt
V
None
W
write-back cache
A write-back cache writes data into the cache, then periodically checks for discrepancies between
cache data and memory data. (Discrepancies can occur, for example, from a hard drive
transferring data directly into memory via
DMA). Write-back cache is faster than write-through
cache, but the overhead to monitor discrepancies between memory and cache makes write-back
cache more expensive.
write-through cache
A write-through cache writes the same data into memory and cache in a single operation. A write-
through cache is slower than a write-back cache, but potentially safer because it guarantees that
cache data and corresponding memory data are always the same.
