Table B-5 show card Command Field Descriptions
Field Description
slot Slot number the card occupies.
admin type Type of the interface card, as specified by the administrator. The first two letters indicate the general type
of the card such as ib (InfiniBand). This is followed by the number of ports on the card and then the
maximum supported network speed. There are two types that do not follow this convention, controller and
controllerIb12port4x. controller indicates the type of independent controller card found on both sides of
the system chassis. controllerIb12port4x indicates a controller card that piggy-backs onto a 12-port 4X
Fabric Copper Switch cluster connections, where each port connection can support speeds up to 4X.
controllerIb12port4x is found in system configurations.
oper type Actual type of the card, as detected by the controller. If there is any conflict between admin type and oper
type, the system assumes the type specified by oper type is correct and allows you to configure the card
based upon this assumption. If a type mismatch occurs, verify that you are selecting the correct type for the
card in the chassis.
