I'm not sure about the granularity this needs tracking at. > Can someone familiar with the opensm code tell me how difficult it would be > to > extract out the code that tracks the subnet data and responds to queries? Although I don't think that is difficult, IMO it is more a matter of whether you want to buy into the architecture with the component and vendor libraries. I can help with this if this is the direction chosen. I would make this another build option. The other question is how this would be changed so that when the data is not present the real SA is queried. -- Hal _______________________________________________ openib-general mailing list [email protected] http://openib.org/mailman/listinfo/openib-general To unsubscribe, please visit http://openib.org/mailman/listinfo/openib-general
