When partitioning the InfiniBand fabric with the smpartition command, consider these guidelines during the configuration session:
Valid P_Keys for partitioning are 0x1 through 0x7fff. However, both 0x1 and 0x7fff are predefined P_Keys and cannot be created or deleted with the smpartition command.
Default entries (ports) in the predefined partitions cannot be removed. However, when you add ports into the predefined partitions using the smpartition add command, the added ports take precedence over the default ALL_SWITCHES and ALL_CAS port groupings.
The SELF and ALL port groupings are not supported by the smpartition command. To specify all ports for a partition use the ALL_SWITCHES port grouping in conjunction with the ALL_CAS port grouping in the smpartition add command.
The ALL_SWITCHES port grouping must have full membership in the default partition (P_Key 0x7fff).
The ALL_CAS port grouping can have limited membership in the default partition (P_Key 0x7fff).
To remove the ipoib flag from a partition, use the smpartition modify -flag command without any additional arguments.
If you use EoIB and VNIC functionality in a non-default partition, you must specify the appropriate BridgeX chips' InfiniBand port GUIDs to the partition.
When you know the VNIC's Ethernet connector, this table provides the respective BridgeX chip's portname.
|
When you know the Portname, you can look in the output of the showgwports command for the respective PortGUID. Using the table and the showgwports command together, when you know the Ethernet connectors used for your VNICs, you can find the respective BridgeX chip's InfiniBand port GUIDs to add to the non-default partition.
