NAME

       IBQUERYERRORS - query and report IB port counters

SYNOPSIS

       ibqueryerrors [options]

DESCRIPTION

       The  default  behavior  is  to report the port error counters which exceed a threshold for
       each port in the fabric.  The default threshold is zero (0).  Error  fields  can  also  be
       suppressed entirely.

       In addition to reporting errors on every port.  ibqueryerrors can report the port transmit
       and receive data as well as report full link information to the remote port if available.

OPTIONS

       -s, --suppress <err1,err2,...> Suppress the errors listed  in  the  comma  separated  list
       provided.

       -c,  --suppress-common Suppress some of the common "side effect" counters.  These counters
       usually do not indicate an error condition and can be usually be safely ignored.

       -r, --report-port Report the port information.  This includes LID, port, external port (if
       applicable),  link  speed  setting,  remote  GUID,  remote  port, remote external port (if
       applicable), and remote node description information.

       --data Include the optional transmit and receive data counters.

       --threshold-file  <filename>  Specify  an  alternate  threshold  file.   The  default   is
       /etc/infiniband-diags/error_thresholds

       --switch  print data for switch's only

       --ca  print data for CA's only

       --skip-sl   Use the default sl for queries. This is not recommended when using a QoS aware
       routing engine as it can cause a credit deadlock.

       --router  print data for routers only

       --clear-errors -k Clear error counters after read.

       --clear-counts -K Clear data counters after read.

       CAUTION clearing data or error counters will occur regardless of if they  are  printed  or
       not.  See --counters and --data for details on controlling which counters are printed.

       --details include receive error and transmit discard details

       --counters print data counters only

   Partial Scan flags
       The node to start a partial scan can be specified with the following addresses.

       --port-guid, -G <port_guid>  Specify a port_guid

       -D, --Direct <dr_path>     The address specified is a directed route

          Examples:
             -D "0"          # self port
             -D "0,1,2,1,4"  # out via port 1, then 2, ...

             (Note the second number in the path specified must match the port being
             used.  This can be specified using the port selection flag '-P' or the
             port found through the automatic selection process.)

       Note: For switches results are printed for all ports not just switch port 0.

       -S <port_guid> same as "-G". (provided only for backward compatibility)

   Cache File flags
       --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.

   Port Selection flags
       -C, --Ca <ca_name>    use the specified ca_name.

       -P, --Port <ca_port>    use the specified ca_port.

   Local port Selection
       Multiple  port/Multiple CA support: when no IB device or port is specified (see the "local
       umad parameters" below), the libibumad library selects the port to use  by  the  following
       criteria:

          1. the first port that is ACTIVE.

          2. if not found, the first port that is UP (physical link up).

          If  a  port  and/or CA name is specified, the libibumad library attempts to fulfill the
          user request, and will fail if it is not possible.

          For example:

              ibaddr                 # use the first port (criteria #1 above)
              ibaddr -C mthca1       # pick the best port from "mthca1" only.
              ibaddr -P 2            # use the second (active/up) port from the first available IB device.
              ibaddr -C mthca0 -P 2  # use the specified port only.

   Configuration flags
       --config, -z  <config_file> Specify alternate config file.
          Default: /etc/infiniband-diags/ibdiag.conf

       --outstanding_smps, -o <val>
              Specify the number of outstanding SMP's which should be issued during the scan

              Default: 2

       --node-name-map <node-name-map> Specify a node name map.
          This file maps GUIDs to more user friendly names.  See FILES section.

       -t, --timeout <timeout_ms> override the default timeout for the solicited mads.

       -y, --m_key <key>
              use the specified M_key for requests. If non-numeric value (like 'x') is  specified
              then a value will be prompted for.

   Debugging flags
       -d     raise the IB debugging level.  May be used several times (-ddd or -d -d -d).

       -e     show send and receive errors (timeouts and others)

       -h, --help      show the usage message

       -v, --verbose
              increase  the application verbosity level.  May be used several times (-vv or -v -v
              -v)

       -V, --version     show the version info.

       -R  (This option is obsolete and does nothing)

EXIT STATUS

       -1 if scan fails.

       0 if scan succeeds without errors beyond thresholds

       1 if errors are found beyond thresholds or inconsistencies are found in check mode.

FILES

   ERROR THRESHOLD
       /etc/infiniband-diags/error_thresholds

       Define threshold values for errors.  File format is  simple  "name=val".   Comments  begin
       with '#'

       Example:

          # Define thresholds for error counters
          SymbolErrorCounter=10
          LinkErrorRecoveryCounter=10
          VL15Dropped=100

   CONFIG FILE
       /etc/infiniband-diags/ibdiag.conf

       A  global  config  file  is provided to set some of the common options for all tools.  See
       supplied config file for details.

   NODE NAME MAP FILE FORMAT
       The node name map is used to specify user friendly names for nodes in the  output.   GUIDs
       are used to perform the lookup.

       This  functionality  is  provided  by the opensm-libs package.  See opensm(8) for the file
       location for your installation.

       Generically:

          # comment
          <guid> "<name>"

       Example:

          # IB1
          # Line cards
