Determination of X Window System capabilities is typically performed by checking for the existence of the DISPLAY variable.


Distributed operating system - System management components

1

System management components are software processes that define the node's policies. These components are the part of the OS outside the kernel. These components provide higher-level communication, process and resource management, reliability, performance and security. The components match the functions of a single-entity system, adding the transparency required in a distributed environment.

When natural resource management is applied to whole ecosystems, rather than single species, it is termed ecosystem management https://store.theartofservice.com/the-system-management-toolkit.html

Ecosystems - Ecosystem management

While ecosystem management can be used as part of a plan for wilderness conservation, it can also be used in intensively managed ecosystems (see, for example, agroecosystem and close to nature forestry).


SymbOS - File system management

1

SymbOS supports the file systems CP/M,

AMSDOS, FAT12, FAT16, FAT32, on all platforms. With the last one SymbOS is able to address mass storage devices with a capacity of up to 128GB. Also the ability to administer files with a size of up to 2GB is uncommon for an 8-bit system. Because of the FAT support data exchange with other computers is quite easy, as most 32 and 64 bit operating systems do support the three

FAT file systems.


System Management Bus

1

The 'System Management Bus'

(abbreviated to 'SMBus' or 'SMB') is a

Single-ended signalling|single-ended simple two-wire Bus (computing)|bus for the purpose of lightweight communication.

Most commonly it is found in computer motherboards for communication with the power source for ON/OFF instructions.



1

It is derived from I²C for communication with low-bandwidth devices on a motherboard, especially power related chips such as a laptop's rechargeable battery subsystem (see Smart Battery

System). Other devices might include temperature, fan or voltage sensors, lid switches and clock chips. PCI add-in cards may connect to a SMBus segment.



1

A device can provide manufacturer information, indicate its model/part number, save its state for a suspend event, report different types of errors, accept control parameters and return status. The SMBus is generally not user configurable or accessible. Although

SMBus devices usually can't identify their functionality, a new Power Management

Bus|PMBus coalition has extended SMBus to include conventions allowing that.



1

The SMBus was defined by Intel in 1995.

It carries clock, data, and instructions and is based on Philips' I²C serial bus protocol.

Its clock frequency range is 10kHz to

100kHz. (PMBus extends this to 400kHz.)

Its voltage levels and timings are more strictly defined than those of I²C, but devices belonging to the two systems are often successfully mixed on the same bus.



1

SMBus is used as an interconnect in several platform management standards including: Alert Standard Format|ASF,

Desktop and mobile Architecture for

System Hardware|DASH, Intelligent

Platform Management Interface|IPMI.


System Management Bus -

SMBus/I²C Interoperability

1

While SMBus is derived from I²C, there are several major differences between the specifications of the two busses in the areas of electricals, timing, protocols and operating modes. smbus.org nxp.com

090429 maxim-ic.com


System Management Bus - Input Voltage (VIL and VIH)

1

When mixing devices, the I²C specification defines the VDD to be 5.0V ±10% and the fixed input levels to be 1.5 and 3.0V.

Instead of relating the bus input levels to

VDD, SMBus defines them to be fixed at

0.8 and 2.1V. This SMBus specification allows for bus implementations with VDD ranging from 3 to 5V.


System Management Bus - Sink Current (IOL)

1

SMBus has a ‘High Power’ version 2.0 that includes a 4 mA sink current that cannot be driven by I²C chips unless the pull-up resistor is sized to I²C-bus levels.



1

NXP devices have a higher power set of electrical characteristics than SMBus 1.0.

The main difference is the current sink capability with VOL = 0.4V.



1

*SMBus high power = 4 mA



1

SMBus ‘high power’ devices and I²C-bus devices will work together if the pull-up resistor is sized for 3mA.


System Management Bus - Frequency (FMAX and FMIN)

1

The SMBus clock is defined from 10 –

100kHz while I²C can be 0–100kHz, 0–

400kHz, 0 –1MHz and 0–3.4MHz, depending on the mode. This means that an I²C bus running at less than 10kHz will not be SMBus compliant since the SMBus devices may time out. Many SMBus devices will however support lower frequencies.


System Management Bus - Timing

1

*SMBus defines a clock low time-out, TIMEOUT of

35ms. I²C does not specify any timeout limit.



1

*SMBus specifies TLOW: SEXT as the cumulative clock low extend time for a slave device. I²C does not have a similar specification.



1

*SMBus specifies TLOW: MEXT as the cumulative clock low extend time for a master device. Again I²C does not have a similar specification.



1

*SMBus defines both rise and fall time of bus signals. I²C does not.



1

*The SMBus time-out specifications do not preclude I²C devices co-operating reliably on the SMBus. It is the responsibility of the designer to ensure that I²C devices are not going to violate these bus timing parameters.


System Management Bus - ACK and NACK usage

1

There are the following differences in the use of the NACK bus signaling:



1

In I²C, a slave receiver is allowed to not acknowledge the slave address, if for example it's unable to receive because it’s performing some real time task https://store.theartofservice.com/the-system-management-toolkit.html


1

indicate this by generating the not acknowledge on the first byte to follow


System Management Bus - SMBus protocols

1

Each message transaction on SMBus follows the format of one of the defined SMBus protocols. The SMBus protocols are a subset of the data transfer formats defined in the I²C specifications. I²C devices that can be accessed through one of the SMBus protocols are compatible with the SMBus specifications. I²C devices that do not adhere to these protocols cannot be accessed by standard methods as defined in the SMBus and ACPI specifications.


System Management Bus - Address Resolution Protocol

1

The SMBus uses I²C hardware and I²C hardware addressing, but adds secondlevel software for building special systems.

In particular its specifications include an

Address Resolution Protocol that can make dynamic address allocations.



1

Dynamic reconfiguration of the hardware and software allow bus devices to be



1

‘hot-plugged’ and used immediately, without restarting the system. The devices are recognized automatically and assigned unique addresses. This advantage results in a plug-and-play user interface. In both those protocols there is a very useful distinction made between a System Host and all the other devices in the system that can have the names and functions of masters or slaves.


System Management Bus - Time-out feature

1

SMBus has a time-out feature which resets devices if a communication takes too long.



1

This explains the minimum clock frequency of 10kHz to prevent locking up the bus https://store.theartofservice.com/the-system-management-toolkit.html


1

SMBus protocol just assumes that if something takes too long, then it means that there is a problem on the bus and that all devices must reset in order to clear this mode. Slave devices are not then allowed to hold the clock LOW too long.


System Management Bus - Packet Error Checking

1

SMBus 2.0 and 1.1 allow enabling

'Packet Error Checking' ('PEC')


System Management Bus - SMBALERT#

1

The SMBus has an extra optional shared interrupt signal called SMBALERT#, which can be used by slaves to tell the host to ask its slaves about events of interest.


System Management Bus - SMBALERT#

1

SMBus also defines a less common Host

Notify Protocol, providing similar notifications but passing more data and building on the I²C multi-master mode.


System Management Bus - SMBus Support

1

SMBus devices are supported by

FreeBSD, OpenBSD, NetBSD, DragonFly

BSD, Linux, Windows 2000 and newer and Windows CE.

IBM System Management Facilities

1

'IBM System Management Facility (SMF)' is a component of IBM's z/OS for

Mainframe_computer|mainframe computers, providing a standardised method for writing out records of activity to a file (or data set to use a z/OS term). SMF provides full instrumentation of all baseline activities running on that IBM mainframe operating system, including I/O, network activity, software usage, error conditions, processor utilization, etc. https://store.theartofservice.com/the-system-management-toolkit.html


1

One of the most prominent components of z/OS that uses SMF is the IBM Resource

Measurement Facility (RMF). RMF provides performance and usage instrumentation of resources such as processor, memory, disk, cache, workload, virtual storage, IBM_XCF|XCF and

Coupling Facility. RMF is technically a priced (extra cost) feature of z/OS. BMC

Software|BMC sells a competing https://store.theartofservice.com/the-system-management-toolkit.html

alternative, CMF.


1

SMF forms the basis for many monitoring and automation utilities. Each SMF record has a numbered type (e.g. SMF 120 or

SMF 89), and installations have great control over how much or how little SMF data to collect. Records written by software other than IBM products generally have a record type of 128 or higher. Some record types have subtypes

- for example Type 70 Subtype 1 records are written by RMF to record CPU activity.


IBM System Management Facilities - SMF record types

1

*RMF records are in the range 70 through to 79. RMF's records are generally supplemented - for serious performance analysis - by Type 30 (subtypes 2 and 3) address space records.



1

*RACF type 80 records are written to record security issues, i.e. password violations, denied resource access attempts, etc. Other security systems such as ACF2 also use the type 80 and 81 SMF records.



1

*SMF type 89 records indicate software product usage and are used to calculate reduced sub-capacity software pricing.



1

*IBM_DB2|DB2 writes type 100, 101 and 102 records, depending on specific DB2 subsystem options.



1

*Websphere MQ writes type 115 and 116 records, depending on specific Websphere

MQ subsystem options.



1

*IBM WebSphere Application

Server|WebSphere Application Server for z/OS writes type 120. Version 7 introduced a new subtype to overcome shortcomings in the earlier subtype records. The new Version 7 SMF 120.9 |

120 Subtype 9 record provide a unified request-based view with lower overhead.


IBM System Management Facilities - Evolving records

1

The major record types, especially those created by RMF, continue to evolve at a rapid pace. Each release of z/OS brings new fields. Different processor families and Coupling Facility levels also change the data model.


IBM System Management Facilities - SMF data recording

1

* The standard and classical way: Using buffers the SMF address space, together with a set of preallocated

Data_set_(IBM_mainframe)|datasets

(VSAM datasets) to use when a buffer fills up. The standard name for the datasets is

SYS1.MANx, where x is a numerical suffix

(starting from 0).



1

* The relatively new way: Using log streams. SMF utilizes System Logger to record collected data, which improves the writing rate and avoids buffer shortages. It has more flexibility, allowing the z/OS system to straightforwardly record to multiple log streams, and (using keywords on the dump program) allowing z/OS to read a set of SMF data once and write it many times.



1

Both the two ways can be declared for the use, but only one is used at a time in order to have the other as a fallback alternative.



1

This data is then periodically dumped to sequential files (for example, tape drives) using the IFASMFDP SMF Dump Utility (or

IFASMFDL when using log streams).

IFASMFDP can also be used to split existing

SMF sequential files and copy them to other files. The two dump programs produce the same output, so it does not involve changes in the SMF records elaboration chain, other than changing the JCL with the call of the new dump utility.

Close to nature forestry - Forest management/ecosystem management

1

The close to nature approach intends to bridge the discrepancies, or even antagonisms between the silvicultural and ecological visions on the single reality of forest, considering the forest as an ecological systems|ecological system that produces wood. The sought after solution is not to segregate the territory into areas devoted to either forestry or ecology, but to integrate all functions.


Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem - Ecosystem management by species

1

The great ecosystem concept has been most often advanced through concerns over individual species rather than over broader ecological principles. Though 20 or 30 or even 50 years of information on a population may be considered long-term by some, one of the important lessons of

Greater Yellowstone management is that even half a century is not long enough to give a full idea of how a species may vary https://store.theartofservice.com/the-system-management-toolkit.html

in its occupation of a wild ecosystem.


1

For example, anecdotal information on grizzly bear abundance dates to the mid-

19th century, and administrators have made informal population estimates for more than 70 years. From these sources, ecologists know the species was common in Greater Yellowstone when Europeans arrived and that the population was not isolated before the 1930s, but is now.

Researchers do not know if bears were https://store.theartofservice.com/the-system-management-toolkit.html

more or less common than now.

Early accounts of pronghorn (Antilocapra americana) in Greater Yellowstone described herds of hundreds seen ranging through most major valley|river valleys.

These populations were decimated by

1900, and declines continued among remaining herds. On the park's northern range, pronghorn declined from 500-700 in the 1930s to about 122 in 1968. By 1992 the herd had increased to 536.



1

Among plants, whitebark pine (Pinus albicaulis) is a species of special interest, in large part because of its seasonal importance to grizzly bears, but also because its distribution could be dramatically reduced by relatively minor global warming https://store.theartofservice.com/the-system-management-toolkit.html


1

Estimates of the decline of Aspen|quaking aspen (Populus tremuloides) on the park's northern range since 1872 range from

50% to 95%, and perhaps no controversy underway in Greater Yellowstone more clearly reveals the need for comprehensive interdisciplinary research https://store.theartofservice.com/the-system-management-toolkit.html

The Yellowstone hot springs are important for their diversity of

Thermophile|thermophilic bacteria. These bacteria have been useful in studies of the evolution of photosynthesis and as sources of thermostable enzymes for molecular biology. Although the smell of sulfur is common and there are some sulfur fixing cyanobacteria, it has been found that hydrogen is being used as an energy source by extremophile microbes.


Ecosystem management

1

Several approaches to effective ecosystem management engage conservation efforts at both a local or landscape level and involves: adaptive management, natural resource management, strategic management, and command and control management.


Ecosystem management - Formulations

1

The definitions of ecosystem management are typically vague.Lackey

(1998) Several core principles define and bound the concept and provide operational meaning: (1) ecosystem management reflects a stage in the continuing evolution of social values and priorities; it is neither a beginning nor an end; (2) ecosystem management is place-based and the boundaries of the place must be clearly and formally defined; (3) ecosystem management should maintain ecosystems in the appropriate condition to achieve desired social benefits; (4) ecosystem management should take advantage of the ability of ecosystems to respond to a variety of stressors, natural and man-made, but all ecosystems have limited ability to accommodate stressors and maintain a desired state; (5) ecosystem management may or may not result in emphasis on biological diversity; (6) the term sustainability, if used at all in ecosystem management, should be clearly defined —specifically, the time frame of concern, the benefits and costs of concern, and the relative priority of the Economics|benefits and costs; and (7) scientific information is important for effective ecosystem management, but is only one element in a decision-making process that is fundamentally one of public and .Lackey (1998) https://store.theartofservice.com/the-system-management-toolkit.html

Ecosystem management - Formulations

1

Professional natural resource managers, typically operating from within government bureaucracies and professional organizations, often mask debate over controversial assertions by depicting ecosystem management as an evolution of past management approaches.


Ecosystem management - Stakeholders

1

Journal of Environmental Management 90:

1933-1949 The complex nature of decisions made in ecosystem management, from local to international scales, requires stakeholder participation from a diversity of knowledge, perceptions and values of nature https://store.theartofservice.com/the-system-management-toolkit.html

Ecosystem management - Adaptive management

1

Adaptive management is based on the concept that predicting future influences/disturbance to an ecosystem is limited and unclear.Pahl-Wostl, 2007 https://store.theartofservice.com/the-system-management-toolkit.html


1

Holling (1978) Thus, adaptive management serves as a “learning by doing” method for ecosystem management.



1

Adaptive management has had mixed success in the field of ecosystem management, possibly because ecosystem managers may not be equipped with the decision-making skills needed to undertake an adaptive management methodology https://store.theartofservice.com/the-system-management-toolkit.html

Ecosystem management - Natural resource management
