3 Installation Planning This document contains the following sections that give HP Fabric Clustering System installation information: • Planning the Cluster Chapter 3 19
Installation Planning Planning the Cluster Planning the Cluster This section contains the following general guidelines and protocol-specific considerations for planning HP Fabric Clustering System clusters that run HP-MPI or TCP/UDP/IP applications.
Installation Planning Planning the Cluster HP Fabric Clustering System architecture provides a shortcut that bypasses several layers in the typical protocol stack, boosting link performance and lowering latency. By avoiding interruptions and buffer copying in the protocol stack, communication task processing is optimized. The IETF has developed a draft standard that enables the use of TCP/IP and UDP/IP over HP Fabric Clustering System transports. The standard is referred to in this document as IPoIB.
Installation Planning Planning the Cluster The HP Fabric Clustering System product has no support capability to balance the load across all available resources in the cluster, including nodes, adapter cards, links, and multiple links between switches. Configuration Parameters This section discusses the maximum limits for Fabric configurations. There are numerous variables that can impact the performance of any particular Fabric configuration.
Installation Planning Planning the Cluster Point-to-Point Configuration You can interconnect large servers like the HP Superdome to run HP-MPI and TCP/UDP/IP applications. Point-to-point connections between HP servers support the performance benefits of HP Fabric Clustering System without investing in HP Fabric Clustering System Switches. This is a good solution in small configurations where the benefits of a switched fabric cluster might not be required (see configuration A in Figure 3-1).
Installation Planning Planning the Cluster Where larger numbers of nodes are required, HP recommends cascading AB291A 12-port 4X Fabric Copper Switches (see Figure 3-3) to create at most an 18-node fabric. Other topologies are possible but are not recommended. For larger configurations, HP recommends the use of a high-port count switch. Contact your HP representative for information on such a product.

For information on managing the HP-UX host, refer to “HP-UX Host Administration and Management” on page 40.
Administration and Management Switch Administration and Management Starting A CLI Session The CLI login prompt is automatically displayed in a terminal window when you connect the serial port of a computer to the Serial-Console port. It is also displayed when you Telnet or SSH to a configured Ethernet Management port. Log in as the user with the appropriate permissions for what you wish to do. The user account you use determines your level of access. super, admin, and guest are the default user accounts.
Administration and Management Switch Administration and Management Entering CLI Modes The CLI has four command modes • user-execute mode • privileged-execute mode • global-configuration mode • sub-command mode The commands you can enter depend upon the current command mode and who you log in as. You may enter a question mark (?) at the CLI prompt to list the commands appropriate for the current mode and user identity. All CLI sessions begin in the user-execute mode.
Administration and Management Switch Administration and Management To enter the sub-command mode from the global-configuration mode, enter the interface keyword, the type of interface to be configured, and then identify the specific card or ports to be configured. For example, to enter the sub-command mode for an Ethernet card, ports 1 through 4.

Administration and Management Switch Administration and Management • Manage the system out-of-band through the serial console or Ethernet management port, or in-band through the Fabric ports.
Administration and Management Switch Administration and Management Configuration, Image, and Log File Overview The following sections describe how to use the important files in the HP Fabric Clustering System Switch OS file system. The file system uses three basic file types: • Configuration files • Image Files • Log Files Configuration Files A configuration file is a text file that stores a list of CLI commands. The main configuration file is called startup-config.
Administration and Management Switch Administration and Management • Inactive Image An inactive image is one that has been downloaded, but has not been installed; therefore it is not the active, or “system” image. The HP Fabric Clustering System Switch OS can only store one inactive image. Delete inactive images through the CLI (refer to page 78). • Recovery Image The Recovery Image is a default image that comes installed on the system.
Administration and Management Switch Administration and Management Step 7. Reboot the system. 1. Set-Up the Hardware Connection For detailed information about the HP Fabric Clustering System Switch hardware, refer to “Switch Setup” on page 35. There are two types of hardware connections that can be used to download a new image to the system. • Out-of-Band connection Connect the server to the switch ethernet management port, if a connection does not already exist.
Administration and Management Switch Administration and Management Step 4. Check that the system image is synchronized across all installed cards.
Administration and Management Switch Administration and Management HP-IB> enable HP-IB# copy ftp://user-name:password@source-IP-address/source-image-file-path-name image:destination-file-name Enter path, user-name and password information. This information authenticates you to the server, which is specified in source-IP-address. • Include the full path to the file. • Set the file-system to image when copying image files. HP-IB# copy ftp://root:infini@15.13.113.96/tmp/HP-AB291A-Release-1.1.3hp-build020.
Administration and Management Switch Administration and Management 4. Install a New Image After downloading the image file to the chassis controller, it must be installed. The install command installs the specified image file into the system. To install an image file: Step 1. In the privileged-execute mode, enter install image:file. image specifies the file resides in the image file-system. file is the name of the image file to install.

6 Monitoring and Troubleshooting This chapter discusses monitoring and troubleshooting your HP Fabric Clustering System. The HP-UX Host and HP Fabric Clustering System Switch each have a unique set of tools for monitoring and troubleshooting their respective components within the HP Fabric Clustering System.
Monitoring and Troubleshooting Diagnosing Problems Diagnosing Problems This section provides useful guidelines to determine which component within your HP Fabric Clustering System is at fault. Follow the LED descriptions to determine the faulty component, and then proceed to the appropriate component troubleshooting section. The power supply, system, and fan LEDs are located on the front of the HP Fabric Clustering System Switch.
Monitoring and Troubleshooting Diagnosing Problems HP Fabric Clustering System Switch Cluster Connection & HCA Connection LEDs Normal operation is indicated by solid color logical link LED (green - switch, yellow - HCA), and a flashing green physical link LED. The top LED indicates a logical link has taken place. A logical link is established when the subnet manager makes a sweep, and must be established to use the port.
Monitoring and Troubleshooting Diagnosing Problems Table 6-1 LED Logical Link Status (top) 102 HCA & Switch Connection LED Colors and Meanings Color Meaning Notes Solid yellow (HCA) Solid green (switch) Indicates a logical link has been established.
