Description

This InfiniBand command uses vendor supplied management datagrams to validate connectivity between InfiniBand nodes and return other information about the node. The command is a client-server, in that a remote node is configured as a server, while a local node performs as a client.

The command is first run locally on the server. The command is then run again locally on the client, pointing to the LID of the server. The ping repeats every second on the server, until you type the Ctrl-C key combination to exit the command.

Example

The following example shows how to retrieve system information about a remote node server from a local node client with the ibsysstat command. First configure the remote node server:

# ibsysstat -S
<CTRL-C to exit server>
#

Then run the command on the local node client:

# ibsysstat 1 ping
sysstat ping succeeded
# ibsysstat 1 host
nsn105-100.nsn.sfbay.sun.com
# ibsysstat 1 cpu
