Runtime Error
(run´tīm er´&r) (n.) An error that occurs during the execution of a program. In contrast, compile-time errors occur while a program is being compiled. Runtime errors indicate bugs in the program or problems that the designers had anticipated but could do nothing about. For example, running out of memorywill often cause a runtime error.
Note that runtime errors differ from bombs or crashesin that you can often recover gracefully from a runtime error.

- Storage Area Network (SAN)
SAN (storage area network) is a high-speed network of storage devices that also connects those storage devices with servers. It provides block-level storage that can be accessed by the applications running on any networked servers. SAN storage devices can include tape libraries and disk-based devices, like RAID hardware. SAN Vs. DAS Performance Organizations often choose […]
- SAN fabric
The hardware that connects workstations and servers to storage devices in a SAN is referred to as a “fabric.” The SAN fabric enables any-server-to-any-storage device connectivity through the use of Fibre Channel switching technology.
