IBM System Blue Gene Solution: Configuring and Maintaining Your Environment

This IBM Redbooks publication is a complement of the Blue Gene/L system administration manual developed.

This book is an example based guide that brings to your attention experiences gained by our Redbooks team members before and during the project. Our experiences have been discussed with the Blue Gene/L development team and the System p Cluster development team to find optimal ways to bring together Blue Gene’s tremendous HPC characteristics with efficient management techniques developed over the years for other IBM clustering products.

In this book we provide detailed information that you need to administer an IBM Blue Gene/L (BG/L for short) system solution. We also provide instructions on how to install and configure the software required on BG/L, including the Service Node (SN), Front End Nodes (FENs), and other auxiliary optional software such as GPFS, LoadLeveler, and CSM.

We have also tried to emphasize the high availability aspects of such an environment, and suggest ways to protect your Blue Gene/L system using techniques and readily available IBM software products.

Additionally, we attempt to unveil the internal structure of the Blue Gene/L Database, as we consider this useful for fine tuning and auditing your system.
