Hi Ward,
Thanks a lot for the feedback! The method of probing
/sys/class/infiniband/*/ports/*/state is also used in the NHC script
lbnl_hw.nhc and has the advantage of not depending on the nmcli command
from the NetworkManager package.
Can I ask you how you implement your script as a service in the Systemd
booting process, perhaps similar to Max's solution in
https://github.com/maxlxl/network.target_wait-for-interfaces ?
Thanks,
Ole

We have a slightly difference script to do the same. It only relies on /sys:

if [[ ! -d /sys/class/infiniband ]]

logger "No infiniband found"
exit 0
fi
ports=$(ls /sys/class/infiniband/*/ports/*/state)
for (( count = 0; count < 300; count++ ))
