METHOD FOR MONITORING AND CONTROLLING DEPORTS OF A CLUSTER USING AN INFINIBAND-TYPE COMMUNICATION NETWORK AND COMPUTER PROGRAM USING SAID METHOD

摘要

The invention relates to remote monitoring and control of a cluster comprising nodes (315, 335) connected to a communication network of a first type (305). One of these nodes (315), called the relay node, includes first and second network interfaces in accordance with the first and second types of communication network, respectively. After being received via the first network interface, a data packet is encapsulated in a data frame conforming to a protocol of the communication network of the second type. The data frame is then transmitted to a remote computer via the second network interface. The steps of receiving a data packet, encapsulating a data packet and transmitting a data frame are implemented in the relay node.
