I can't speak for all IB networks, but I do know on our network, the SM on our
switch wouldn't last longer than a week. That network had 288 nodes. We cured
all the SM problems by switching to a dedicated server running OpenSM only. We
tried running OpenSM on a server running other tasks too,
I've got good news. I was able to get opensm to take control. I gave it a
priority of 15 and rebooted the 7000D. Unfortunately I'm not sure I can leave
it like this forever. The only host I had with opensm installed is my test
front end for an OS upgrade I'm testing. We're moving from Rocks 4.3

I just discovered another interesting point. I tried to start opensm on one of
my hosts and it went into STANDBY state. Here is the log of it trying to start
up:

Interesting note! The 7024 is our large switch where all the hosts are
connected, but I was told that we were sold the 7000D because the 7024 didn't
have a subnet manager. Unfortunately the 7000D has a different CLI and that
command is not available and I don't have the password for our 7024 so

Ira,
Thanks for the quick response. That is what I was afraid of. I've been looking
through the switch documentation, but it doesn't cover starting, stopping, or
even checking the status of the SM service. I'll look into opening a TAC case,
but since Cisco has gotten out of the IB business I'm n

I hope this is the correct place to get help with the problem I have. I have an
IB fabric running on a Cisco SFS switch with a 7000D as the subnet manager and
the whole thing has been running great for well over a year now, but today I
noticed that after any node gets rebooted its IB link doesn'
