IBM eServer pSeries High Performance Switch Installation
Overview To deliver the performance required by the applications, in addition to powerful servers with high-speed processors, a low latency, very high bandwidth communication network was required. This type of network was originally implemented as the HiPS, evolving later to SP Switch, and then to SP Switch2. A new management function for the complex IBM eServer pSeries environment had been developed and named Cluster Systems Management (CSM). CSM provided the basic management functions required by a cluster based on either IBM eServer pSeries or xSeries, or a combination of the two server types. Because CSM did not support existing SP Switch technology, a new switch technology was needed, the IBM eServer pSeries High Performance Switch (HPS).
