Server Management Network for System with Maximum 324 Nodes, 2 BYNET Cabinets
- This configuration is built on the cabinet and collective topology defined in Collectives.
- The topology shown in the illustration above is based on a 1700 system with 108 cabinets in a 2+1 or 3+0 configuration with one clique per cabinet. The topology may differ depending on the number of cabinets in the system. The number of cabinets is determined by the clique configuration (1+0, 1+1, 2+0, 2+1, or 3+0) of the cabinets in the system.
- Each cabinet shown above represents a collective. The collective may include Platform Framework Cabinets (not shown).
- Separate paths for the primary and secondary server management networks ensure network redundancy.
- The primary network
is configured as follows:
- The upper primary Ethernet switch in the BYNET V5 Network-0 cabinet acts as the gathering switch for the primary switches in odd-numbered cabinets 1-89. The primary switches in those odd-numbered cabinets act as gathering switches for the primary switches in even-numbered cabinets 2-90.
- The lower primary Ethernet switch in the PFC acts as the gathering switch for the primary switches in odd-numbered cabinets 91-107. The primary switches in those odd-numbered cabinets act as gathering switches for the primary switches in even-numbered cabinets 92-108.
- The secondary network
is configured as follows:
- The upper secondary Ethernet switch in the BYNET V5 Network-0 cabinet acts as the gathering switch for the secondary switches in even-numbered cabinets 2-90. The secondary switches in those even-numbered cabinets act as gathering switches for the secondary switches in odd-numbered cabinets 1-89.
- The lower secondary Ethernet switch in the BYNET V5 Network-0 cabinet acts as the gathering switch for the secondary switches in even-numbered cabinets 92-108. The secondary switches in those even-numbered cabinets act as gathering switches for the secondary switches in odd-numbered cabinets 91-107.
