METHOD AND DEVICE FOR MONITORING THE SUPPLY OF AUTHENTICATION CERTIFICATES TO SERVICE NODES OF A HIGH-PERFORMANCE COMPUTER

摘要

The invention relates to a method which monitors the supply of authentication certificates to service nodes (N11-NNM(N)) of a high-performance computer (CHP). Said method comprises a first step of defining for each service node an assembly of at least one authentication certificate, and then integrating each assembly defined for a service node into a configuration file associated with an identifier of said service node; a second step in which each service node (N11- NNM(N)) transmits to a predefined server (SC) a start-up request intended for recovering the identifier thereof and a control file containing the assembly comprised in the associated configuration file; and a third step in which each service node (N11-NNM(N)) extracts from the recovered control file the assembly contained therein in order to store each authentication certificate contained therein in an associated location in a corresponding storage area.
