HP XC System 3.x Software manual Determining System Configuration Information

Page 22

Be aware of the following information about the HP XC file system layout:

Open source software that by default would be installed under the /usr/local directory is instead installed in the /opt/hptc directory.

Software installed in the /opt/hptc directory is not intended to be updated by users.

Software packages are installed in directories under the /opt/hptc directory under their own names. The exception to this is third-party software, which usually goes in /opt/r.

Four directories under the /opt/hptc directory contain symbolic links to files included in the packages:

/opt/hptc/bin

/opt/hptc/sbin

/opt/hptc/lib

/opt/hptc/man

Each package directory should have a directory corresponding to each of these directories in which every file has a symbolic link created in the /opt/hptc/ directory.

System Interconnect Network

The HP XC system interconnect provides high-speed connectivity for parallel applications. The system interconnect network provides a high-speed communications path used primarily for user file service and for communications within user applications that are distributed among nodes of the system. The system interconnect network is a private network within the HP XC. Typically, every node in the HP XC is connected to the system interconnect.

Table 1-2indicates the types of system interconnects that are used on HP XC systems.

Additional information on supported system interconnects is provided in the HP XC Hardware Preparation Guide.

Network Address Translation (NAT)

The HP XC system uses Network Address Translation (NAT) to enable nodes in the HP XC system that do not have direct external network connections to open outbound network connections to external network resources.

Determining System Configuration Information

You can determine various system configuration parameters with a few commands:

HP XC System Software Version

Use the following command to display the version of the HP XC System

 

Software:

cat /etc/hptc-release

 

Kernel Version

Use the following command to display the version of the kernel:

uname -r

 

cat /proc/version

 

RPMs

Use the following command to display the RPMs:

rpm -qa

 

Memory

Use the following command to display the amount of free and used

 

memory in megabytes:
