NAME
opa2rm Permits the generation of configuration files for FastFabric or resource managers from a topology xml file. When using a topology spreadsheet and opaxlattopology to design and prepare for deployment verification of a fabric, opa2rm may be used to generate resource manager configuration from the planned cluster design. Using this approach will allow the resulting configuration files to be complete, even if some nodes in the fabric have not yet been installed or made operational. Alternatively, opareport -o topology can be used to generate a topology XML file for input to opa2rm. In this case, only the currently present nodes will be included. When working with SLURM, the opa2rm -o slurm option should typically be used. This option will generate a SLURM configuration file that lists the hosts directly connected to each switch in a syntax that can be used by SLURM's topology/tree plugin. It also generates a single "fake" switch shown as connecting all the other switches together. This approach allows for SLURM job placement to be improved while avoiding undo overhead in SLURM. This option also allows for topologies that are not a pure fat-tree. When the configuration is a pure fat tree or oversubscribed fat tree, the opa2rm -o slurmfull option may be used to generate the full description of the fabric, including all intermediate and core switches in the fat tree topology. This option may permit better job placement optimization than the output from the opa2rm -o slurm option. However for larger fabrics, it may also increase the overhead within SLURM.
Syntax
opa2rm [-v] [-q] -o output [-g|-u|-t] [-F point] [-p prefix] [-s suffix] topology_input
Options
--help Produces full help text. -v/--verbose Specifies verbose output. -q/--quiet Disables progress reports. -o/--output output Specifies the output type: slurm SLURM tree nodes. Supports a variety of topologies. slurmful SLURM fat tree nodes and ISLs. Only supports pure trees. hosts FastFabric hosts file omitting this host -g/--guid Specifies the output switch GUIDs instead of names. -u/--underscore Changes spaces in switch names to underscores. -t/--trunc Truncates switch names at first space. This will treat large Director switches as a single, big switch. If -g, -u or -t are not specified, the switch name's suffix, after the first space, will be placed at the start of the name. For example, 'core5 Leaf 101' becomes 'Leaf101_core5'. -F/--focus point Specifies the focus area for output. Limits the scope of output to links that match any of the given focus points. -p/--prefix prefix Specifies the prefix to prepend to all FI hostnames. -s/--suffix suffix Specifies the suffix to append to all FI hostnames. topology_input Specifies the topology_input file to use. '-' may be used to specify stdin.
Point Syntax
node:value value is node description (node name). node:value1:port:value2 value1 is node description (node name); value2 is port number. nodepat:value value is glob pattern for node description (node name). nodepat:value1:port:value2 value1 is glob pattern for node description (node name); value2 is port number. nodetype:value value is node type (SW or FI). nodetype:value1:port:value2 value1 is node type (SW or FI); value2 is port number. rate:value value is string for rate (25g, 50g, 75g, 100g). mtucap:value value is MTU size (2048, 4096, 8192, 10240); omits switch mgmt port 0. labelpat:value value is glob pattern for cable label. lengthpat:value value is glob pattern for cable length. cabledetpat:value value is glob pattern for cable details. linkdetpat:value value is glob pattern for link details. portdetpat:value value is glob pattern for port details to value.
