Many tools and utilities are provided. Some with similar functionality. .sp The base utilities use directed route MAD\(aqs to perform their operations. They may therefore work even in unconfigured subnets. Other, higher level utilities, require LID routed MAD\(aqs and to some extent SA/SM access. .SS THE USE OF SMPs (QP0) .sp Many of the tools in this package rely on the use of SMPs via QP0 to acquire data directly from the SMA. While this mode of operation is not technically in compliance with the InfiniBand specification, practical experience has found that this level of diagnostics is valuable when working with a fabric which is broken or only partially configured. For this reason many of these tools may require the use of an MKey or operation from Virtual Machines may be restricted for security reasons. .SS COMMON OPTIONS .sp Most OpenIB diagnostics take some of the following common flags. The exact list of supported flags per utility can be found in the documentation for those commands. .SS Addressing Flags .sp The \-D and \-G option have two forms: .\" Define the common option -D for Directed routes . .sp \fB\-D, \-\-Direct\fP The address specified is a directed route .INDENT 0.0 .INDENT 3.5 .sp .nf .ft C Examples: [options] \-D [options] "0" # self port [options] \-D [options] "0,1,2,1,4" # out via port 1, then 2, ... (Note the second number in the path specified must match the port being used. This can be specified using the port selection flag \(aq\-P\(aq or the port found through the automatic selection process.) .ft P .fi .UNINDENT .UNINDENT .\" Define the common option -D for Directed routes . .sp \fB\-D, \-\-Direct \fP The address specified is a directed route .INDENT 0.0 .INDENT 3.5 .sp .nf .ft C Examples: \-D "0" # self port \-D "0,1,2,1,4" # out via port 1, then 2, ...

Most identifiers are given textual names like vendor ID (vendid), device ID (device ID), GUIDs of various types (sysimgguid, caguid, switchguid, etc.). PortGUIDs are shown in parentheses (). For switches, this is shown on the switchguid line. For CA and router ports, it is shown on the connectivity lines. The IB node is identified followed by the number of ports and a quoted the node GUID. On the right of this line is a comment (#) followed by the NodeDescription in quotes. If the node is a switch, this line also contains whether switch port 0 is base or enhanced, and the LID and LMC of port 0. Subsequent lines pertaining to this node show the connectivity. On the left is the port number of the current node. On the right is the peer node (node at other end of link). It is identified in quotes with nodetype followed by \- followed by NodeGUID with the port number in square brackets. Further on the right is a comment (#). What follows the comment is dependent on the node type. If it it a switch node, it is followed by the NodeDescription in quotes and the LID of the peer node. If it is a CA or router node, it is followed by the local LID and LMC and then followed by the NodeDescription in quotes and the LID of the peer node. The active link width and speed are then appended to the end of this output line. .sp An example of this is: .INDENT 0.0 .INDENT 3.5 .sp .nf .ft C # # Topology file: generated on Tue Jun 5 14:15:10 2007 # # Max of 3 hops discovered # Initiated from node 0008f10403960558 port 0008f10403960559 Non\-Chassis Nodes vendid=0x8f1 devid=0x5a06 sysimgguid=0x5442ba00003000 switchguid=0x5442ba00003080(5442ba00003080) Switch 24 "S\-005442ba00003080" # "ISR9024 Voltaire" base port 0 lid 6 lmc 0 [22] "H\-0008f10403961354"[1](8f10403961355) # "MT23108 InfiniHost Mellanox Technologies" lid 4 4xSDR [10] "S\-0008f10400410015"[1] # "SW\-6IB4 Voltaire" lid 3 4xSDR [8] "H\-0008f10403960558"[2](8f1040396055a) # "MT23108 InfiniHost Mellanox Technologies" lid 14 4xSDR [6] "S\-0008f10400410015"[3] # "SW\-6IB4 Voltaire" lid 3 4xSDR [12] "H\-0008f10403960558"[1](8f10403960559) # "MT23108 InfiniHost Mellanox Technologies" lid 10 4xSDR vendid=0x8f1 devid=0x5a05 switchguid=0x8f10400410015(8f10400410015) Switch 8 "S\-0008f10400410015" # "SW\-6IB4 Voltaire" base port 0 lid 3 lmc 0 [6] "H\-0008f10403960984"[1](8f10403960985) # "MT23108 InfiniHost Mellanox Technologies" lid 16 4xSDR [4] "H\-005442b100004900"[1](5442b100004901) # "MT23108 InfiniHost Mellanox Technologies" lid 12 4xSDR [1] "S\-005442ba00003080"[10] # "ISR9024 Voltaire" lid 6 1xSDR [3] "S\-005442ba00003080"[6] # "ISR9024 Voltaire" lid 6 4xSDR vendid=0x2c9 devid=0x5a44 caguid=0x8f10403960984 Ca 2 "H\-0008f10403960984" # "MT23108 InfiniHost Mellanox Technologies" [1](8f10403960985) "S\-0008f10400410015"[6] # lid 16 lmc 1 "SW\-6IB4 Voltaire" lid 3 4xSDR vendid=0x2c9 devid=0x5a44 caguid=0x5442b100004900 Ca 2 "H\-005442b100004900" # "MT23108 InfiniHost Mellanox Technologies" [1](5442b100004901) "S\-0008f10400410015"[4] # lid 12 lmc 1 "SW\-6IB4 Voltaire" lid 3 4xSDR vendid=0x2c9 devid=0x5a44 caguid=0x8f10403961354 Ca 2 "H\-0008f10403961354" # "MT23108 InfiniHost Mellanox Technologies" [1](8f10403961355) "S\-005442ba00003080"[22] # lid 4 lmc 1 "ISR9024 Voltaire" lid 6 4xSDR vendid=0x2c9 devid=0x5a44 caguid=0x8f10403960558 Ca 2 "H\-0008f10403960558" # "MT23108 InfiniHost Mellanox Technologies" [2](8f1040396055a) "S\-005442ba00003080"[8] # lid 14 lmc 1 "ISR9024 Voltaire" lid 6 4xSDR [1](8f10403960559) "S\-005442ba00003080"[12] # lid 10 lmc 1 "ISR9024 Voltaire" lid 6 1xSDR .ft P .fi .UNINDENT .UNINDENT .sp When grouping is used, IB nodes are organized into chassis which are numbered.
