    • A Control Unit is described, including a Processing Unit (12) controlled by a Service Processor (14), and a plurality of adapters (18) exchanging data and/or control signals with said Processing Unit (PU). For ensuring a continuous operation of the Control Unit, the adapters are partitioned into at least two sets (56,58), and the PU is partitioned into at least two parts (26,28), each set of adapters being connected to a dedicated PU part by a primary bus (52,54). Besides, in order to allow the fallback of a set of adapters onto another PU part if the PU part to which it is normally connected is inoperative, a bus switching device (30) is provided. This bus switching device includes at least two Switch parts (38,40), and each Switch part performs the switching of a given set of adapters onto a given PU part, according to the status of each PU part. Therefore, each Switch part is connected to a given set of adapters by a primary bus (52,54), and to the other sets of adapters by secondary busses (46,48) which become active in fallback mode.
    • 描述了包括由服务处理器(14)控制的处理单元(12)和与所述处理单元(PU)交换数据和/或控制信号的多个适配器(18)的控制单元。 为了确保控制单元的连续操作,适配器被划分成至少两组(56,58),并且PU被划分成至少两个部分(26,28),每组适配器连接到专用 PU部分由主要公共汽车(52,54)。 此外,为了允许一组适配器在其正常连接的PU部件不起作用的情况下将另一个适配器回退到另一个PU部件上,提供总线切换装置(30)。 该总线切换装置包括至少两个开关部件(38,40),并且每个开关部件根据每个PU部件的状态执行给定的一组适配器到给定PU部件上的切换。 因此,每个开关部分通过主总线(52,54)连接到给定的适配器组,并且通过在回退模式中变为活动的次级总线(46,48)连接到其它适配器组。

    • This invention relates to a protocol implemented in a communication system for exchanging data and control messages between adapters to which are attached different users, and a shared memory subsystem comprising a depository storage, a manager of storage and a microprocessor. Such protocol enables the adapters to be the initiators of the transmission and reception of data by using the control lines that connect the manager of storage to all adapters in the same way as the data bus and the address bus. Moreover, the adapters slice the messages into data bursts to which are associated control words specifying the sizes, the owner and the position of the burst in the message. Consequently, those data bursts may be interleaved when transiting on the data bus without the intervention of the microprocessor for the routing, and they will be stored in or read from the depository storage according to the identification of the user in the control word. Therefore, only the shared memory needs to have a high capacity of storage, whereas the manager of storage and the adapters can operate with a reduced capacity of storage, and the time to send or to access a data burst is much more improved.
    • 本发明涉及一种在通信系统中实现的用于在连接到不同用户的适配器之间交换数据和控制消息的协议,以及包括存储存储器,存储管理器和微处理器的共享存储器子系统。 这样的协议使得适配器能够通过使用与数据总线和地址总线相同的方式使用将存储管理器连接到所有适配器的控制线来发送和接收数据。 此外,适配器将消息分割成数据突发,其中是指定消息中的突发的大小,所有者和位置的关联控制字。 因此,当在数据总线上转移时,这些数据脉冲串可能被交错,而不需要微处理器进行路由,并且它们将根据用户在控制字中的标识被存储在存储器存储器中或从存储器存储器读取。 因此,只有共享存储器需要具有高的存储容量,而存储器和适配器的管理器可以以降低的存储容量进行操作,并且发送或访问数据突发的时间进一步得到改善。
