ibstat ibstat is a binary which displays basic information obtained from the local IB
driver. Output includes LID, SMLID, port state, link width active, and port
physical state.
For further information, please refer to the tool’s man page.
ibstatus Displays basic information obtained from the local InfiniBand driver. Output
includes LID, SMLID, port state, port physical state, port width and port rate.
For further information, please refer to the tool’s man page.
ibswitches Traces the InfiniBand subnet topology or uses an already saved topology file
to extract the InfiniBand switches.
For further information, please refer to the tool’s man page.
ibsysstat Uses vendor mads to validate connectivity between InfiniBand nodes and
obtain other information about the InfiniBand node. ibsysstat is run as client/
server. The default is to run as client.
For further information, please refer to the tool’s man page.
ibtopodiff Compares a topology file and a discovered listing ofsubnet.lst/ibdiagnet.lst
and reports missmatches.
Two different algorithms provided:
• Using the -e option is more suitible for MANY mismatches it applies less
heuristics and provide details about the match
• Providing the -s, -p and -g starts a detailed heuristics that should be used
when only small number of changes are expected
For further information, please refer to the tool’s man page.
ibtracert Uses SMPs to trace the path from a source GID/LID to a destination GID/
LID. Each hop along the path is displayed until the destination is reached or a
hop does not respond. By using the -m option, multicast path tracing can be
performed between source and destination nodes.
For further information, please refer to the tool’s man page.
ibv_asyncwatch Display asynchronous events forwarded to userspace for an InfiniBand
device.
For further information, please refer to the tool’s man page.
ibv_devices Lists InfiniBand devices available for use from userspace, including node
GUIDs.
For further information, please refer to the tool’s man page.
ibv_devinfo Queries InfiniBand devices and prints about them information that is avail-
able for use from userspace.
For further information, please refer to the tool’s man page.
