NAME
opagetvf_env
Provides opagetvf_func and opagetvf2_func shell functions that query the parameters of a vFabric. Also
exports values that indicate the PKEY, SL, MTU, and RATE associated with the vFabric. The typical usage
of this tool is to include it in a shell script as:. /usr/sbin/opagetvf_env
A usage example is provided in:
/usr/src/opa/mpi_apps/openmpi.params
NOTE: opagetvf_func and opagetvf2_func have a similar usage. The difference is whether the MTU and RATE
are returned as absolute values or enum values, respectively.
Function Syntax
opagetvf_func "arguments to opagetvf" pkey_env_var_name sl_env_var_name
[ mtu_env_var_name [ rate_env_var_name]]
or
opagetvf2_func "arguments to opagetvf" pkey_env_var_name
sl_env_var_name [ mtu_env_var_name [ rate_env_var_name]]
Function Options
"arguments to opagetvf"
Specifies a set of arguments to pass to opagetvf to select a virtual fabric.See opagetvf for
more information.
pkey_env_var_name
Specifies the environment variable to fill in with pkey for the selected virtual fabric. The
variable given will be exported with the hex numeric value for the pkey.If a variable name of
"" is provided, pkey is not saved.
sl_env_var_name
Specifies the environment variable to fill in with service level (sl) for the selected virtual
fabric. The variable given will be exported with the numeric value for the sl.If a variable
name of "" is provided, sl is not saved.
mtu_env_var_name
Specifies the environment variable to fill in with maximum MTU for the selected virtual fabric.
The variable given will be exported with the value for the MTU.If a variable name of "" is
provided, MTU is not saved.
For opagetvf_func, MTU is returned as an absolute value of 2048, 4096, 8192, or 10240.
For opagetvf2_func, MTU is returned as an enumerated value of 4, 5, 6, or 7 corresponding to
the absolute values above, respectively.
If the selected virtual fabric does not have a limitation specified for MTU, the variable will
be unaltered.
rate_env_var_name
Specifies the environment variable to fill in with maximum static rate for the selected virtual
fabric. The variable given will be exported with the value for the rate.If a variable name of
"" is provided, rate is not saved.
For opagetvf_func, rate is returned as an absolute value of 25g, 50g, 75g or 100g.
For opagetvf2_func, rate is returned as an enumerated value of 15, 12, 9, or 16 corresponding
to the absolute values above, respectively.
If the selected virtual fabric does not have a limitation specified for rate, the variable will
be unaltered.
Function Example
# ensure values are empty in case they are not specified for the
virtual fabric
MTU=
RATE=
opagetvf_func "-d 'Compute'" PKEY SERVICE_LEVEL MTU RATE
echo "The Compute Virtual Fabric has pkey: $PKEY SL:$SERVICE_LEVEL MTU:
$MTU rate:$RATE"
NOTE: Additional examples may be found in /usr/src/opa/mpi_apps/openmpi.params and
/usr/src/opa/mpi_apps/mvapich2.params. Those scripts use opagetvf_func and opagetvf2_func to get virtual
fabric parameters and then pass them into openmpi and mvapich2, respectively.
