Linux Network Installation Service for Multiple Platforms Provided by an AIX 5L Version 5.3 NIM Server
Overview With the increasing popularity of the Linux operating system (OS) as an alternative server OS across all platforms the complexity in some areas of the systems management increased as well in contrary to the expected decline. Regarding the manageability of heterogeneous Linux OS clusters, it is a real challenge to find a complete consolidation approach, since every platform has its platform specific systems management components. The network installation service is also considered to be one of them, especially since every Linux distribution has different characteristics. IBM Cluster Systems Management (CSM) software offers a very advanced cross platform systems management which is capable to consolidate all of the hardware related cluster systems management tasks to one single server.
