The options available with ipath_checkout are shown in Table F-2.
In most cases of failure, the script suggests recommended actions. Also refer to
the ipath_checkout man page.
ipath_control
The ipath_control tool is a shell script that manipulates various parameters
for the InfiniPath driver. It is installed from the infinipath RPM. Many of the
parameters are used only when diagnosing problems, and may require special
system configurations. Using these options may require restarting the driver or
utility programs to recover from incorrect parameters.

in all, including the case where none of these options are

any test fails. When specified, the tests continue after a fail-
ure, with failing nodes excluded from subsequent tests.

--workdir=DIR Use DIR to hold intermediate files created while running
tests. DIR must not already exist.
