NAME

SMPDUMP -

DUMP INFINIBAND SUBNET MANAGEMENT ATTRIBUTES

SYNOPSIS

smpdump [options] <dlid|dr_path> <attribute> [attribute_modifier]

DESCRIPTION

smpdump is a general purpose SMP utility which gets SM attributes from a specified SMA. The result is dumped in hex by default.

OPTIONS

dlid|drpath: LID or DR path to SMA
attribute: IBA attribute ID for SM attribute
attribute_modifier: IBA modifier for SM attribute
-s, --string: Print strings in packet if possible

Addressing Flags

-D, --Direct The address specified is a directed route

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 '-P' or the
   port found through the automatic selection process.)

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

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
