+ Load subnet database from file:
Using this option can save the subnet discovery time for large cluster.
Note: Some if ibdiagnet checks would not be performed when the -load_db
option is set. These checks are:
- - Duplicated GUIDs.
- - Zero GUIDs.
+ - Duplicated guids.
+ - Zero guids.
- Links in INIT state.
- SMs status.
+ A new flag, -skip <skip-option(s)>, was added. When this flag is specified,
ibdiagnet skips the given check. One or more space separated values can be
specified.
- Available skip options: dup_guids, zero_guids, pm, logical_state, part, ipoib.
- The -skip flag can be used in order to run only specific checks, or to reduce

- Ibdiagnet "-wt" option may generate a bad topology file when running on a
cluster that contains complex switch systems.
