6750HX and 6750X coexistence systems have Mellanox InfiniBand adapters that run BYNET V5. The 6690 nodes need to be upgraded to V5 in order to coexist with 6750HX and 6750X nodes.
When 6750HX and 6750X systems coexist with older generation nodes, the system runs based on the slowest component.
The following coexistence system configurations are valid for 6750HX nodes.
Nodes in System | 6750HX Nodes to Add to Build a Coexistence System | BYNET Version | BYNET Switch |
---|---|---|---|
2-18 | Add 6750HX to a system with 6700H nodes. | V5 | Mellanox InfiniBand IS5030 36-port (6700H cabinet) |
19-108 | Add 6750HX to a system with 6700H nodes. | V5 | Mellanox InfiniBand SX6506-NR 108-port (9107 cabinet) |
109-162 | Add 6750HX to a system with 6700H nodes. | V5 |
|
163-324 | Add 6750HX to a system with 6700H nodes. | V5 | Mellanox InfiniBand SX6518 324-port (9107 cabinet) |
The following coexistence system configurations are valid for 6750X nodes.
