13.2.4.2 Relocate the Master Subnet Manager
You are required to relocate the master SM from a leaf switch (Sun Network QDR
InfiniBand Gateway Switch) to the spine switch (Sun Datacenter InfiniBand Switch 36)
when you are connecting more than one Exalogic machine. This step is also necessary
when you are connecting an Exalogic machine to an Oracle Exadata Database
Machine.
