(1) A service that copies inactive files from disk to removable media for longer term storage and removes the files from disk to free disk storage space. The user can select specific objects or groups of objects to include or exclude from the archive process.<br />(2) Persistent storage used for long-term information retention, typically very inexpensive for each stored unit and slow to access, and often in a different geographic location to protect against equipment failures and natural disasters.<br />(3) To copy programs, data, or files to another storage media, usually for long-term storage or security. See also retrieve, storage pool.
Industry:Software
(1) A function that is used to exchange structured data type values in one direction between a DB2 server and host language programs.<br />(2) A DataStage function that computes a value from an original value.
Industry:Software
(1) A session bean with no conversational state. All instances of a stateless bean are identical. (Sun) See also session bean, stateful session bean.<br />(2) A session bean that is a collection of operations. The server can optimize resources by reusing bean instances on every method call.
Industry:Software
(1) A function that permits the sharing of a pool of I/O-related control blocks, channel programs, and buffers among several Virtual Storage Access Method (VSAM) data sets that are open at the same time. See also global shared resource, local shared resource.<br />(2) A software file or plug-in that is stored in a directory and can be shared by packages. See also installation directory.

(1) A session that connects the active CICS to an end user.<br />(2) In XRF, a session between a class 1 terminal and the active system.
Industry:Software
(1) A function that protects data stored in an auxiliary storage pool from being lost because of the failure of a single disk. When checksum protection is in effect and a disk failure occurs, the system automatically reconstructs the data when the system program is loaded after the device is repaired. See also device parity protection, mirrored protection.<br />(2) In TCP/IP, the sum of a group of data associated with the group and used for error checking purposes.
Industry:Software
(1) A session that remains active even though there is no activity on the session for a specified period of time.<br />(2) An LU-LU session that VTAM retains after the failure of a VTAM application program. Following the application program's recovery, the application program restores or terminates the session.
Industry:Software
(1) A function that uses the state of the option indicators to display or print data when a record format is written.<br />(2) In Business Graphics Utility, the selection of fields from a database file for use as data values and data labels.<br />(3) In the GDDM function, the selection of fields from a database file for use as data values.
Industry:Software
(1) A set of access rights to a group of target instances.<br />(2) In Eclipse, a group of functions that can be hidden or revealed in order to simplify the user interface. Capabilities are enabled or disabled by changing preference settings.<br />(3) An abstract definition of functional software characteristics (function, interface, property, event, and so forth) or nonfunctional software characteristics (scalability, portability, performance, and so forth). See also feature.<br />(4) Specific features or characteristics of a piece of software, such as the database version.
