From ibnetdiscover output I see port13 of this switch is a
switch-interconnect (sorry, I don't know what the correct name/identifier
for switches within switches):

[13]    "S-000b8cffff002bfa"[13]                # "SW_pfs1_inter7" lid
263 4xSDR
It is possible that port was DOWN during first subnet discovery. Finally
everything should be initialized after those messages. Isn't it the case
here?
I think everything is initialized, but I don't think the port was down during first subnet discovery, since the port is on a spine board (I called it 'inter') to another switch system. We also never added any leafes to the switches.

It is interesting phenomena then.

Yevgeny, do you aware about such issue with Flextrinocs switches?


I've seen it before. It means that during discovery some switch has
answered NodeInfo query, but then when OpenSM started to query for
PortInfo for each port of this switch, switch didn't answer for some
(or all) ports.

I think that this might happen if a switch has just been "plugged in",
and internal switches are doing autonegotiation - they are bringing
ports up and down when determining whether a link is SDR or DDR.

In any case, this "phenomena" should disappear after a couple of
dozens of seconds, when all the autonegotiation phase would be over.

Bernd, am I close?
