Planning the Fabric

Hyper Messaging Protocol (HMP)

Technical Computing

This configuration is typically used to run technical computing applications. A large number of small nodes are interconnected to achieve high throughput. High availability is not usually a requirement in technical computing environments.

HMP provides the high performance, low latency path necessary for these technical computing applications. As many as 56 nodes can be interconnected using HP’s 16 port switches. Not more than four 16 port switches can be linked in a single cluster.
