System and method for supporting scalable representation of switch port status in high performance computing environments

摘要

Systems and methods for supporting a scalable representation of link stability and availability in a high performance computing environment. The method can provide an attribute at each node in the subnet, and the attribute is a single location at each node for the subnet manager to query the stability and availability of each link connected to the queried node. I will provide a. Attributes may be embedded and maintained by a subnet management agent that resides on the node.
