| Cluster Systems Management for pSeries Linux is a dynamic environment to centralize management of a cluster of pSeries Linux systems; some of the new features which might be available in the near future are: -
Highly Available Management Server to eliminate the management server being a single point of failure. Once set up, managed nodes can function independently, but the management server is important for using features such as event monitoring. -
Interoperability and mix of managed nodes running on xSeries, IntelliStation, e325 Linux clusters and pSeries servers running AIX. -
Red Hat Enterprise Advanced Server version 3.0 support for the management server and nodes. -
A higher number managed nodes. With CSM version 1.3.2, the current limit is a maximum of 128 pSeries Linux nodes. Future versions will support a higher number of nodes. -
Support for new High Speed Switch offerings. -
Better cross-support on xSeries systems using IBM Director software. |
