Configuring the SP Switch Router Adapter
Configuration required on the SP system
SP Switch Router Adapter Guide - 1.4 Update 2 October 22, 1999 2-13
Procedure
1 From the SP control workstation, determine the switch_node_number by entering:
SDRGetObjects DependentNode node_number==n
where n is the node_number of the dependent node.
This command produces output that looks like:
node_number switch_node_number ...
47 31 ...
2 From the SP control workstation, determine the host name of the switch primary node by
entering:
splstdata -s
This command produces output that lists information about nodes on the SP switch. It
includes the following data and identifies the primary node host name:
switch_port topology primary arp switch_node
number filename name enabled nos._used
-----------------------------------------------------------------
1 top.7 ournode1 no yes
In this case, the primary node host name is "ournode1".
3 Log into the primary node by entering:
tn node_hostname
where node_hostname is the host name of the primary node.
4 From the primary node, enter:
pg /var/adm/SPlogs/css/out.top
5 Within the /out.top file, look for the lines containing "tb3". tb3 is immediately
followed by the value for the switch_node_number.
For switch_node_number 31, the following line identifies the SP switch jack
E02-S17-BH-J15 (Frame 2, switch, bulkhead, jack J15):
s 27 3 tb3 31 0 E02-S17-BH-J15 to E03-N47 # Dependent Node
If you need help interpreting this identifying string, see the PSSP Maintenance
Information, Volume 2, Maintenance Analysis Procedures and Parts Catalog for an
explanation of the naming standard for RS/6000 SP components.
