2.
Make sure the local ports are active by running 'ibv_devinfo'.
3.
Obtain the device LID.
1. Use the "mst ib add" command:
The "mst ib add" runs the ibdiagnet/ibdiscover tool to discover the InfiniBand fabric and then lists the discovered
IB nodes as an MST device under /dev/mst/ directory. These devices can be used for access by other MFT tools.
2. List the discovered MST inband devices run "mst status".
Identify the switch you want to update according to its description or its LID.
In the examples below we will use
Query the switch to determine the current firmware version:
