摘要： Methods for performing power management of InfiniBand (IB) switches and apparatus and software configured to implement the methods. Power management datagrams (MADs) are used to inform IB switches that host servers connected to the IB switch's ports are to transition to a reduced-power or offline state or have returned to a normal operating state. A subnet management agent (SMA) on the IB switch receives the power MADs from the host servers and tracks each server's operating state. In response to power down MADs, the SMA coordinates power reduction of the switch's ports and other switch circuitry. For switches with multi-port IB interfaces, a multi-port interface is caused to enter a reduced-power state when all of its ports are connected to host servers that are idle or offline. Additionally, when all of a switch's ports are connected to idle or offline servers the SMA may put the switch's core switch logic into a reduced-power state. Power MADs are also used to inform upstream IB switches when a switch is to transition to a reduced power state or has returned to a normal operating state.

摘要： A cluster operating in accordance with an integrating operating system independent power management with operating system directed power management includes a group of hosts connected together by a cluster interconnection fabric. A cluster administrator is connected to the group of hosts via the fabric and the cluster administrator includes a cluster power manager. A group of input/output units are connected to the group of hosts and the cluster interconnection fabric. Each of the hosts includes a controller element and an operating system power manager and input/output controller device driver stack. The cluster administrator transmits a request to the controller element of one of the hosts via the fabric and receives a reply therefrom and transmits a command. The controller element transmits the command to the operating system power manager and the input/output controller device driver stack of its host and transmits a command completion acknowledgment to the cluster power manager. The technique allows a cluster administrator to power manager fabric attached hosts and input/output controllers regardless of which host currently owns the controller.

摘要： Methods, apparatus, and software for optimizing network data flows within constrained systems. The methods enable data to be transferred between PCIe cards in multi-socket server platforms, each platform including a local socket having an InfiniBand (IB) HCA and a remote socket. Data to be transmitted outbound from a platform is transferred from a PCIe card to the platform's IB HCA via a proxied datapath. Data received at a platform may employ a direct PCIe peer-to-peer (P2P) transfer if the destined PCIe card is installed in the local socket or via a proxied datapath if the destined PCIe card is installed in a remote socket. Outbound transfers from a PCIe card in a local socket to the platform's IB HCA may selectively be transferred using an either a proxied data path for larger data transfers or a direct P2P datapath for smaller data transfers. The software is configured to support each of local-local, remote-local, local-remote, and remote-remote data transfers in a manner that is transparent to the software applications generating and receiving the data.
