From the output of the iblinkinfo command, note the switch lid value
(65, in first column) associated with the Base lid of the compute node port
that you noted earlier (121, in the first line):
Determine the gateway switch that corresponds to the switch lid 65 by running
3.
the ibswitches command, as in the following example:
Example:
el01cn01# ibswitches
Switch : 0x002128548042c0a0 ports 36 "SUN IB QDR GW switch el01gw03" enhanced
port 0 lid 63 lmc 0
Switch : 0x002128547f22c0a0 ports 36 "SUN IB QDR GW switch el01gw02" enhanced
port 0 lid 6 lmc 0
Switch : 0x00212856d0a2c0a0 ports 36 "SUN IB QDR GW switch el01gw04" enhanced
port 0 lid 65 lmc 0
Switch : 0x00212856d162c0a0 ports 36 "SUN IB QDR GW switch el01gw05" enhanced
port 0 lid 64 lmc 0
lid 65 corresponds to gateway switch el01gw04 with GUID
0x00212856d0a2c0a0.
Define a dummy MAC address in the following format:
4.
last3_octets_of_switchGUID : last3_octets_of_computenode_adminIP_in_hex_format
Example:
GUID of switch: 00:21:28:56:d0:a2:c0:a0
Last three octets: a2:c0:a0
Administrative IP of the compute node that requires the VNIC: 192.168.1.1
Last three octets: 168.1.1 (in hexadecimal notation: a8:01:01)
MAC address: a2:c0:a0:a8:01:01
Note:
The dummy MAC address should be unique to the Exalogic network. Only
even numbers are supported for the most significant byte of the MAC address
(unicast). The above address is an example only.
Ensure that you have noted down all port GUIDs and BridgeX ports.

Log in to the InfiniBand switch where master SM is running. For more

# smpartition start
Run the following command to create a myEoIB partition with the pkey 0x005
8.
with a full membership:
# smpartition create -n myEoIB -pkey 0x005 -m full
