NAME

       ibdiscover.pl - annotate and compare InfiniBand topology

SYNOPSIS

       ibdiscover.pl

DESCRIPTION

       ibdiscover.pl  uses a topology file create by ibnetdiscover and a discover.map file which the network administrator creates which indicates
       the nodes to be expected and a ibdiscover.topo file which is  the  expected  connectivity  and  produces  a  new  connectivity  file  (dis-
       cover.topo.new)	and outputs the changes to stdout. The network administrator can choose to replace the "old" topo file with the new one or
       certain changes in.

       The syntax of the ibdiscover.map file is:

       <nodeGUID>|port|"Text for node"|<NodeDescription from ibnetdiscover format>

       e.g.

       8f10400410015|8|"ISR 6000"|# SW-6IB4 Voltaire port 0 lid 5

       8f10403960558|2|"HCA 1"|# MT23108 InfiniHost Mellanox Technologies

       The syntax of the old and new topo files (ibdiscover.topo and ibdiscover.topo.new) are:

       <LocalPort>|<LocalNodeGUID>|<RemotePort>|<RemoteNodeGUID>

       e.g.

       10|5442ba00003080|1|8f10400410015

       These topo files are produced by the ibdiscover.pl tool.

NAME

       ibcheckerrors - validate IB subnet and report errors

SYNOPSIS

       ibcheckerrors [-h] [-b] [-v] [-N | -nocolor] [<topology-file> | -C ca_name -P ca_port -t(imeout) timeout_ms]

DESCRIPTION

       ibcheckerrors is a script which uses a full topology file that was created by ibnetdiscover, scans the network to validate the connectivity
       and reports errors (from port counters).

OPTIONS

       -v   increase the verbosity level

       -b   brief mode. Reduce the output to show only if errors are present,
	    not what they are.

       -N | -nocolor  use mono rather than color mode

       -C <ca_name>   use the specified ca_name.

       -P <ca_port>   use the specified ca_port.

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