-g, --grouping Show grouping. Grouping correlates IB nodes by different vendor
specific schemes. It may also show the switch external ports corre-
spondence.
-H, --Hca_list List of connected CAs
-S, --Switch_list List of connected switches
-R, --Router_list List of connected routers
-s, --show Show progress information during discovery
--node-name-map <node-name-
map>
Specify a node name map. The node name map file maps GUIDs to
more user friendly names. See “Topology File Format” on page 67.
--cache <filename> Cache the ibnetdiscover network data in the specified filename.
This cache may be used by other tools for later analysis
--load-cache <filename> Load and use the cached ibnetdiscover data stored in the specified
filename. May be useful for outputting and learning about other
fabrics or a previous state of a fabric
--diff <filename> Load cached ibnetdiscover data and do a diff comparison to the cur-
rent network or another cache. A special diff output for ibnetdiscover
output will be displayed showing differences between the old and
current fabric. By default, the following are compared for differ-
ences: switches, channel adapters, routers, and port connections
--diffcheck <key(s)> Specify what diff checks should be done in the --diff option above.
Comma separate multiple diff check key(s). The available diff
checks are: sw = switches, ca = channel adapters, router = routers,
port = port connections, lid = lids, nodedesc = node descriptions.
Note that port, lid, and nodedesc are checked only for the node types
that are specified (e.g. sw, ca, router). If port is specified alongside
lid or nodedesc, remote port lids and node descriptions will also be
com-pared
-p, --ports Obtain a ports report which is a list of connected ports with relevant
information (like LID, port-num, GUID, width, speed, and NodeDe-
scription)
-m, --max_hops Report max hops discovered
--debug, -d/-ddd/ -d -d -d Raise the IB debugging level
--errors, -e Show send and receive errors (timeouts and others)
--help, -h Show the usage message
--verbose,-v/-vv/ -v -v -v Increase the application verbosity level
--version, -V Show the version info
--outstanding_smps -o <val> Specify the number of outstanding SMPs which should be issued dur-
ing the scan
