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 2800 system with 41 cabinets in a 4+0 clique configuration with two cliques per cabinet (8 nodes per base or expansion cabinet). The topology may differ depending on the number of cabinets in the system. The number of cabinets is determined by the clique configuration (4+0 clique, 2+0 clique, or a combination of 4+0 and 2+0 cliques) and number of cliques per cabinet.
  • Each cabinet shown above represents a collective. The collective may include Platform Framework Cabinets (not shown).
  • This configuration has a pair of BYNET V5 cabinets (Network-0 Cabinet and Network-1 Cabinet). Each BYNET V5 cabinet contains one primary server management Ethernet switch or one secondary server management Ethernet switch.
    Although cabinet numbers are not shown for the BYNET V5 cabinets, the cabinet numbers for these cabinets must also be unique in the system.
  • Separate paths for the primary and secondary server management networks ensure network redundancy.
  • If the system is included in a UDA environment, UDA ports will be accommodated by open ports on the primary and secondary server management switches for UDA connections to the other system or systems in the UDA environment. These UDA connections are not shown in the illustration above. For more information, see the Teradata Unified Data Architecture InfiniBand and Server Management Configuration Guide, B035-6001.
  • For port-to-port cabling, see the appropriate Hardware Installation Guide.
