Method of remote monitoring and remote control of a cluster using a communication network of infiniband type and computer program implementing this method

A method of remote monitoring and remote control of a cluster comprising a plurality of nodes connected to a communication network of a first type, a relay node of said plurality of nodes comprising a first network interface in accordance with said first type of communication network and a second network interface in accordance with a second type of communication network, said first and second types being distinct, some steps of said monitoring and control method being implemented in a remote computer linked to said relay node by a communication network of said second type, the method comprising:

• receiving at least one data packet via said first network interface;
• encapsulating said at least one received data packet in at least one data frame in accordance with a protocol of said communication network of said second type;
• sending said at least one data frame to said remote computer via said second network interface,
• said receiving of at least one data packet, said encapsulating of said at least one data packet and said sending of said at least one data frame being implemented in said relay node.
