ABSTRACT:
A management system for a parallel computer system having a control terminal for collectively controlling the maintenance and management of a plurality of nodes constituting the parallel computer system. In the management system, each of a plurality of nodes includes: a main processor operated with a main power source of the node for performing parallel processing; a sub-processor operated with an auxiliary power source of the node for executing a system control command for controlling the main processor; and a system control adapter operated with the auxiliary power source for communications with the control terminal for the system control and for controlling the sub-processor, the control terminal includes a system control adapter for communications with a plurality of system control adapters of the plurality of nodes, and the parallel computer system includes a system control interface for connecting the plurality of system control adapters of the plurality of nodes to the system control adapter of the control terminal and for transmitting the system control command for the maintenance and management of a plurality of main processors of the plurality of nodes, from the control terminal to a plurality of sub-processors of the plurality of nodes.
