ibidsverify - validate IB identifiers in subnet and report errors
Contents
Description
ibidsverify.pl is a perl script which uses a full topology file that was created by ibnetdiscover, scans
the network to validate the LIDs and GUIDs in the subnet. The validation consists of checking that there
are no zero or duplicate identifiers.
Finally, ibidsverify.pl will also reuse the cached ibnetdiscover output from some of the other diag tools
which makes it a bit faster than running ibnetdiscover from scratch.
Exit Status
Exit status is 1 if errors are found, 0 otherwise.
