HP Fabric Clustering System HP-UX Administrator's Guide, March 2008

Command Modes: User-execute and privileged-execute modes.
Privilege Level: InfiniBand read-only user.
Usage Guidelines: Internally, each node connection is implemented by 6 switch chips. Each
switch chip runs its own subnet management agent. Externally, they are viewed by a subnet
manager as interconnected switches and, therefore, each is listed by the node-info command.
The fields in the show ib-agent switch node-info output are described in the table below.
Table B-27 show ib-agent switch all node-info Command Field Descriptions
DescriptionField
Globally unique identifier of the node. The value is an 8-byte string.guid
Type of device this SMA supports. The value is always adapter.type
LID of the channel-adapter.lid
Supported base-management datagram version supported.base-version
Supported subnet-management class.class-version
Globally unique identifier of the node port.port-guid
Number of entries in the partition table for channel Adapter, router, and switch management ports.
This is, at a minimum, set to 1 for all nodes including switches.
partition-cap
Device ID information, as assigned by the device manufacturer.device-id
Device revision, as assigned by the device manufacturer.revision
Number of the link port which received this request, otherwise the value is 0.local-port-num
Device vendor, per the IEEE standard.vendor-id
Special purpose string buffer for InfiniBand trap data.trap-buffer
Number of physical ports on this node.num-ports
Node description string. Unicode characters are 16 bits.string
