Description ibswinfo is a simple script to get status and monitoring information from unmanaged NVIDIA Infiniband switches. NVIDIA Infiniband switches come in two flavors: managed switches have their own management controller, which allows monitoring fan speeds and temperatures, getting serial numbers, or updating firmwares over a variety of protocols (SSH, SNMP, HTTPs...) unmanaged switches are just that: unmanaged. Some in-band management is possible for unmanaged switches with NVIDIA firmware tools, but the only way to get their status is via the LEDs on their chassis: they're either green (that's good), or red (that's bad). But you won't know unless you physically take a look at them, which makes it difficult to get notifications and alerts when problems occur. ibswinfo helps solve this problem, by leveraging NVIDIA Firmware Tools (MFT) to allow sysadmins to get more information about their unmanaged Infiniband switches. It can be used to gather hardware vitals such as fan speeds or temperatures, and monitor the switches more closely. As of version 0.6, ibswinfo also allows setting a user-friendly name (node description) for unmanaged switches. No more endless lists of identical and unhelpful switch names like \"SwitchX - NVIDIA Networking\", sysadmins can now customize each switch by setting a descriptive name, using their model, physical location, cluster name, etc. and make each switch more easily identi","default_branch":null,"files":null,"tree":[],"storefront":"/r/stanford-rc","claimed":false,"request_supported":{"post":"https://gitbuyer.com/r/stanford-rc/ibswinfo/request-supported","requests":0},"note":"indexed from public GitHub; nothing is for sale on this page.
