1.3 Architecture
The Artesyn HPI implementation is provided in the form of a client-server architecture. In the
Centellis 2000 R3.0, the server, called HPI daemon, runs on the ATCA-MF106 and in the
Centellis 4411 environment it runs on the SAM1411 blades. In the client, which is constituted
by the HPI library and an application which links that library, runs on any node within a shelf.
The communication between HPI daemon and HPI client is realized by an IP-based remote HPI
communication protocol.
An HPI client may access one or more HPI daemons, and on the other hand, an HPI daemon
may be accessed by one or more HPI clients. The following figure illustrates this.
