Glossary
The following list of terms and definitions are used in the preceding chapters and should
be read and understood by administrators of the miSAN-V-Series.
3DM – 3ware Disk Manager 2 (3DM®) is a web-based interface used for viewing the sta-
tus of and managing the 3ware® Escalade® 9500S-8 SATA RAID controller and associ-
ated disk drives remotely.
Array – One or more disk drives that appear to the operating system as a single unit.
Within 3ware software (3BM and 3DM) arrays are typically referred to as units.
Auto-archive – A feature used for automatically copying virtual tapes to physical tapes
after a backup to the virtual tapes. Auto-archive allows for automating the process of cre-
ating and maintaining tape cartridge duplicates of virtual tape backups.
Autoload – A feature used for automatically changing the virtual tape for a virtual tape
drive. When enabled, the miSAN-V-Series will mount the next virtual tape listed in the
“Mounted medium” listbox when a host issues an “eject” command.
Barcode label – A label affixed to a tape cartridge that shows a barcode.
Basic disk – A physical disk drive containing basic volumes, such as primary partitions
and logical drives.
CAT 5/5e/6 – Ethernet cable standards defined by the Electronic Industries Association
and Telecommunications Industry Association (EIA/TIA).
CAT 5 is the 5th generation of twisted pair Ethernet cabling and the most popular of
all twisted pair cables in use today. CAT 5 usually contains four pairs of copper wire,
although Fast Ethernet communications only utilize two pairs.
CAT 5 enhanced (5e) supports short-run Gigabit Ethernet 
(1000 Mbps) networking by utilizing all four wire pairs and is backward-compatible
with ordinary CAT 5.
CAT 6 cable contains four pairs of copper wire and unlike CAT 5, utilizes all four pairs.
CAT 6 supports Gigabit Ethernet (1000 Mbps) and supports communications at more
than twice the speed of CAT 5e, the other popular standard for Gigabit Ethernet
cabling.
