Glossary SANavigator SAN ID SANavigator management software provides easy, centralized management of a SAN and quick access to all device configuration applications. A number between 0 and 4,294,967,295 that uniquely identifies an mSAN. SANpilot interface The interface provides a graphical user interface (GUI) similar to the Product Manager application, and supports director or switch configuration, statistics monitoring, and basic operations. With director or switch firmware installed, administrators or operators with a browser-capable personal computer (PC) and an Internet connection can monitor and manage the director or switch through the SANpilot interface. SANpilot interface timeout If the SANpilot interface is running but no user activity occurs, (such as viewing different pages, refreshing, or reconfiguring information), the application times out after 30 minutes. The user must log in again. A login dialog box displays if the user attempts to access any pages after the timeout has occurred. SANpilot interface window The window for the SANpilot interface. The window is divided into two separate panels: the navigation panel on the left, and the main panel on the right. SAN Router cluster ID SAN Router time zone SA OS/390™ scalable The R_Port SAN routing cluster ID is used by the SAN Router R_Ports to register a unique virtual node WWN to the connected fabrics. Third-party management applications use this WWN to manage the SAN Router. The Simple Network Transfer Protocol (SNTP) server’s time zone that is configured in the Element Manager Date/Time dialog box. This allows SNTP clients to adjust the time to their local time zone as needed. See System Automation for Operating System/390. Refers to how well a system can adapt to increased demands. For example, a scalable network system could start with just a few nodes but easily expands to thousands of nodes. Scalability is important because it allows the user to invest in a system with confidence that a business will not outgrow it. Refers to anything whose size can be changed. Glossary g-51
