InfiniBand Software Command Overview
The OFED software package contains the OpenIB software suite. The suite is
comprised of many InfiniBand software commands that are a means of monitoring
and controlling aspects of the InfiniBand fabric. These commands are installed on
and run from the Linux InfiniBand host, which is also the host of the Subnet
Manager. Use of these commands requires thorough knowledge of InfiniBand
architecture and technology.
