IBSYSSTAT(8)

NAME
IBSYSSTAT -

SYSTEM STATUS ON AN INFINIBAND ADDRESS

  SYNOPSIS

ibsysstat [options] <dest lid | guid> [<op>]

  DESCRIPTION

ibsysstat uses vendor mads to validate connectivity between IB nodes and obtain other information about the IB node. ibsysstat is run as client/server. Default is to run as client.

  OPTIONS

Current supported operations:

ping \- verify connectivity to server (default)
host \- obtain host information from server
cpu  \- obtain cpu information from server

-o, --oui
    use specified OUI number to multiplex vendor mads

-S, --Server
    start in server mode (do not return)

.sp --dgid <gid> destination GID: use when GRH is required in packets (IPv6 format)

  Addressing Flags

-G, --Guid The address specified is a Port GUID

-L, --Lid The address specified is a LID

-s, --sm_port <smlid> use 'smlid' as the target lid for SA queries.

  Port Selection flags

-C, --Ca <ca_name> use the specified ca_name.

-P, --Port <ca_port> use the specified ca_port.

  Local port Selection

Multiple port/Multiple CA support: when no IB device or port is specified (see the "local umad parameters" below), the libibumad library selects the port to use by the following criteria:

1.  the first port that is ACTIVE.

2.  if not found, the first port that is UP (physical link up).

    If a port and/or CA name is specified, the libibumad library attempts to fulfill the user request, and will fail if it is not possible.

    For example:

    ibaddr                 # use the first port (criteria #1 above)
    ibaddr -C mthca1       # pick the best port from "mthca1" only.
    ibaddr -P 2            # use the second (active/up) port from the first available IB device.
    ibaddr -C mthca0 -P 2  # use the specified port only.

  Debugging flags

-d  raise the IB debugging level. May be used several times (-ddd or -d -d -d).

-e  show send and receive errors (timeouts and others)

    -h, --help show the usage message

-v, --verbose
    increase the application verbosity level. May be used several times (-vv or -v -v -v)

    -V, --version show the version info.

  Configuration flags

-t, --timeout <timeout_ms> override the default timeout for the solicited mads.

--config, -z <config_file> Specify alternate config file. Default: /etc/infiniband-diags/ibdiag.conf
