Abstract

This redbook is intended for system administrators and system operators who need to manage an SP system. It will help you install, tailor and configure an RS/6000 SP system. It will also illustrate solutions for updating or migrating your SP to a higher level of AIX or PSSP software.

It is based on Version 2, Release 4 and Version 3, Release 1 of the POWERparallel System Support Program. The migration and update section covers procedures when going from PSSP 2.4 to PSSP 3.1. Nevertheless, most of the migration and update tasks described are general procedures that are more or less AIX and PSSP version-independent.

This redbook is also a good starting point for anyone wanting to get more background information about the network install management (NIM), the switch commands and the use of kerberos.
