Similar to 08h Busy status, this status code is returned when the logical unit lacks the resources to accept a received task from an I_T nexus. This status code implies that the logical unit already has at least one task from that I_T nexus, where the 08h Busy status code implies that the logical unit currently has no tasks from that I_T nexus.
ACPI. Advanced Configuration and Power Interface ( ACPI) is an open standard that operating systems can use to discover and configure computer hardware components, to perform power management (e.g. putting unused hardware components to sleep), auto configuration (e.g. Plug and Play and hot swapping ), and status monitoring.
Power-on self-test. A power-on self-test ( POST) is a process performed by firmware or software routines immediately after a computer or other digital electronic device is powered on. [1] POST processes may set the initial state of the device from firmware and detect if any hardware components are non-functional.
180 Ringing. Destination user agent received INVITE, and is alerting user of call. [1] : §21.1.2. 181 Call is Being Forwarded. Servers can optionally send this response to indicate a call is being forwarded. [1] : §21.1.3. 182 Queued. Indicates that the destination was temporarily unavailable, so the server has queued the call until the ...
A residual-current device (RCD), residual-current circuit breaker (RCCB) or ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) [a] is an electrical safety device that interrupts an electrical circuit when the current passing through a conductor is not equal and opposite in both directions, therefore indicating leakage current to ground or current flowing to another powered conductor.
Mean time between failures ( MTBF) is the predicted elapsed time between inherent failures of a mechanical or electronic system during normal system operation. MTBF can be calculated as the arithmetic mean (average) time between failures of a system. The term is used for repairable systems while mean time to failure ( MTTF) denotes the expected ...
Software that shows the health of the drive and its smart attributes. [1]Self-Monitoring, Analysis, and Reporting Technology (S.M.A.R.T., often written as SMART) is a monitoring system included in computer hard disk drives (HDDs) and solid-state drives (SSDs). [2]
A switched-mode power supply ( SMPS ), also called switching-mode power supply, switch-mode power supply, switched power supply, or simply switcher, is an electronic power supply that incorporates a switching regulator to convert electrical power efficiently. Like other power supplies, an SMPS transfers power from a DC or AC source (often mains ...
