Key component definition

The definition of each key component is as follows:

• Controller: This is the hypervisor which coordinates the VMs.
• Block Storage VM: Virtual Machine that manages the ‘blocks’ of data that are stored/striped across the disks. Also referred to by acronym QCSP (Quantum Cloud Storage Platform).
• StorNext VM: StorNext operating system virtual machine.
• Grass Valley VM: Grass Valley virtual machine running STORMGR database software that controls interactions with other GV products and controls media assets.
  Remember: The GV VM only operates on the Bottom Controller.
