B.3 K-O
K
KVM
A hardware device that provides public keyboard, video
and mouse (KVM).
B.4 P-T
P
panel
An external component (including but not limited to
ejector levers, indicators, and ports) on the front or rear of
the server. It seals the front and rear of the chassis to
ensure optimal ventilation and electromagnetic
compatibility (EMC).
Peripheral
Component
Interconnect Express
(PCIe)
A computer bus PCI, which uses the existing PCI
programming concepts and communication standards,
but builds a faster serial communication system. Intel is
the main sponsor for PCIe. PCIe is used only for internal
interconnection. A PCI system can be transformed to a
PCIe one by modifying the physical layer instead of
software. PCIe delivers a faster speed and can replace
almost all AGP and PCI buses.
R
redundancy
A mechanism that allows a backup device to
automatically take over services from a faulty device to
ensure uninterrupted running of the system.
redundant array of
independent disks
(RAID)
A storage technology that combines multiple physical
drives into a logical unit for the purposes of data
redundancy and performance improvement.
S
server
A special computer that provides services for clients over
a network.
system event log
(SEL)
Event records stored in the system used for subsequent
fault diagnosis and system recovery.
