Understanding Hardware Commands
Displays InfiniBand switch node in the topology.
ibswitches [-h][topology|-C ca_name][-P ca_port][-t timeout]
where:
topology is the topology file.
ca_name is the channel adapter name.
ca_port is the channel adapter port.
timeout is the timeout in milliseconds.
This InfiniBand command is a script the discovers the InfiniBand fabric topology or uses an existing topology file to extract the switch nodes.
The following table describes the options to the ibswitches command and their purposes:

The following example shows how to display the switch GUIDs with the ibswitches command.
# ibswitches Switch : 0x0021283a8620b0f0 ports 36 "Sun DCS 72 QDR FC switch o4nm2-72p-2" enhanced port 0 lid 25 lmc 0 Switch : 0x0021283a8620b0d0 ports 36 "Sun DCS 72 QDR switch 1.2(LC)" base port 0 lid 23 lmc 0 Switch : 0x0021283a8620b0b0 ports 36 "Sun DCS 72 QDR switch 1.2(LC)" base port 0 lid 21 lmc 0 Switch : 0x0021283a8620b0a0 ports 36 "Sun DCS 72 QDR switch 1.2(LC)" base port 0 lid 20 lmc 0 Switch : 0x0021283a8620b0c0 ports 36 "Sun DCS 72 QDR switch 1.2(LC)" base port 0 lid 22 lmc 0 Switch : 0x0021283a8620b0e0 ports 36 "Sun DCS 72 QDR switch 1.1(FC)" base port 0 lid 24 lmc 0 . . . #
Note - The output in the example is just a portion of the full output and varies for each InfiniBand topology.
