Monitoring assets
Chapter 3.
In this chapter, the monitoring assets available for IBM Power Systems 775, AIX, and Linux
HPC solution are described. The key features of the new monitoring software that are
introduced with this cluster type also are described. In addition, we demonstrate how to run
general and key component tests, list configurations, and access monitored data for
post-processing in external systems.
This chapter describes the monitoring tools for the following components:
LoadLeveler
General Parallel File System
xCAT
DB2
AIX and Linux systems
Integrated Switch Network Manager
HFI
Reliable Scalable Cluster Technology
Compilers environment
Diskless resources
We also introduce a new monitoring tool that is called Toolkit for Event Analysis and Logging
(TEAL) and demonstrate how to quickly check all system components.
