WHAT DOES QUIESCE MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Quiesce

Quiesce in networking: To render quiescent, i.e. temporarily inactive or disabled. For example, to quiesce a device. It is a system command in MAX TNT software which is used to "Temporarily disable a modem or DS0 channel". Also used as an adjective, in the expression " quiescent time". Quiesce is used to describe pausing or altering the state of running processes on a computer, particularly those that might modify information stored on disk during a backup, in order to guarantee a consistent and usable backup. This generally requires flushing any outstanding writes; see buffering. Perhaps the best known support for this was incorporated into Microsoft Shadow Copies which was introduced in Microsoft Windows Server 2003. For an application to be quiesced during the shadow copy process, it must register itself as a writer and it is responsible for putting itself into a quiescent mode upon notification, In addition, the term "quiesce" is used in telecom applications, whereby callers into a system can finish their call but no new callers are permitted.
