DOWN is the PortState and is due to PortPhysicalState not being LinkUp and has nothing to do with SM. SM only gets into the act once PortPhysicalState is LinkUp (and PortState is then INIT). I would suspect things may not be "connected" the way they need to be and I have no idea how to do that. You might want to contact Voltaire customer support. -- Hal > Shirley > > ___ > general mailing list > [email protected] > http://lists.openfabrics.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/general > > To unsubscribe, please visit http://openib.org/mailman/listinfo/openib-general ___ general mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openfabrics.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/general To unsubscribe, please visit http://openib.org/mailman/listinfo/openib-general

If it is truly passthru, then the subnet is a point to point connection (CA <-> CA). OpenSM works in that mode. I don't think any special setup is needed. If you need multiple of these, then you need multiple SMs (each running on a different CA port and), each configured with a different subnet prefix. -- Hal > Thanks > Shirley > > ___ > general mailing list > [email protected] > http://lists.openfabrics.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/general > > To unsubscribe, please visit http://openib.org/mailman/listinfo/openib-general ___ general mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openfabrics.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/general To unsubscribe, please visit http://openib.org/mailman/listinfo/openib-general
