BYNET V5 Network Topology for a Maximum 324-Node System

  • Consists of one or more 2800 processing/storage cabinets, a VMS with SWS VM or a Service Workstation (SWS), plus additional (optional) Platform Framework Cabinets.
  • Scalable from 1 to 324 total processing nodes (TPA nodes), channel servers, NCSs, TMSs, and TMSSs in any combination.
  • Two BYNET V5 cabinets provide redundant BYNET V5 networks (Network-0 and Network-1). Each cabinet contains one 324-port BYNET V5 switch.
  • Each 324-port BYNET V5 switch contains 1 to 18 leaf boards. Each leaf board supports up to 18 nodes , channel servers, NCSs, TMSs, and TMSSs. Each switch has 9 spine boards that allow the leaf boards to communicate with each other, and one chassis management board for managing the network.
  • Each processing node , channel server, or NCS contains a dual port InfiniBand adapter that connects to the BYNET V5 switch in each BYNET V5 cabinet. A TMS or TMSS may contain a dual port InfiniBand adapter that connects to the switches.
  • Individual optical InfiniBand cables are used to connect processing nodes , channel servers, and NCSs in expansion cabinets, or channel servers, NCSs, TMSs, and TMSSs in (optional) Platform Framework Cabinets, to the BYNET V5 switches in each BYNET V5 cabinet. A TMS or TMSS may contain a dual port InfiniBand adapter that connects to the switches.
  • If the system is included in a UDA environment, some ports on the BYNET V5 InfiniBand switch are used for UDA connections. The number of ports needed depends on the UDA configuration. 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.
