I was thinking more in terms of redirection.
Today none of the clients support redirection. It would take significant
duplicated effort on
the client front to support that.
In IB QoS properties are mainly the PathRecord parameters: SL, Rate,
MTU, PathBits (LMC bits).
So if traditionally we had PathRecord requested for each Src->Dst port
now we will need to track at least:
Src->Dst * #QoS-levels. (a non optimal implementation will require
even more: #Src->Dst * #Clients * #Servers * #Services).
I understand you now.
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?
I guess you mean the code that is answering to PathRecord queries?
It is possible to extract the "SMDB" objects and duplicate that database.
I am not sure it is such a good idea. What if the SM is not OpenSM?
