Currently recognized flags are:
Note that values for rate, MTU, and scope should be specified as defined in the IBTA specifica-
tion (for example, mtu=4 for 2048). To use 4K MTU, edit that entry to "mtu=5" (5 indicates 4K
MTU to that specific partition).
PortGUIDs list:
There are two useful keywords for PortGUID definition:
• 'ALL' means all end-ports in this subnet
• 'SELF' means subnet manager's port
An empty list means that there are no ports in this partition.
Notes:
• White space is permitted between delimiters ('=', ',',':',';').
• The line can be wrapped after ':' after a Partition Definition and between.
• A PartitionName does not need to be unique, but PKey does need to be unique.
• If a PKey is repeated then the associated partition configurations will be merged and the
first PartitionName will be used (see also next note).
• It is possible to split a partition configuration in more than one definition, but then they
PKey should be explicitly specified (otherwise different PKey values will be generated
for those definitions).
PartitionName string, will be used with logging. When omitted, an empty
string will be used.
PKey P_Key value for this partition. Only low 15 bits will
be used. When omitted, P_Key will be autogenerated.
flag used to indicate IPoIB capability of this partition.
defmember=full|limited
specifies default membership for port guid list. Default is limited.
ipoib indicates that this partition may be used for IPoIB, as a
result IPoIB capable MC group will be created.
rate=<val> specifies rate for this IPoIB MC group (default is 3 (10GBps))
mtu=<val> specifies MTU for this IPoIB MC group (default is 4 (2048))
sl=<val> specifies SL for this IPoIB MC group (default is 0)
scope=<val> specifies scope for this IPoIB MC group (default is 2 (link local))
PortGUID GUID of partition member EndPort. Hexadecimal numbers should start
from 0x, decimal numbers are accepted too.
full or limited indicates full or limited membership for this port. When omitted (or
unrecognized) limited membership is assumed.
