Getting diagnostics to work would be a really good
start.
I may have install media and diagnostic disks for the 320H kicking around.
The AIX on the SP2 would have been the same, in fact
the hardware on the
SP2 nodes was similar to the regular RS/6000 boxes except the console
was through a special serial network in the frame and accessed through
the control workstation. Most regular users likely accessed the nodes
through a LAN.
Someday I would like an SP or SP2 system.
What was the internal network on the original SP machines? Did they
use that weird forgotten optical port the first generation RS/6000s
had?
