smPriority
Display the priority of the embedded subnet manager.
Syntax:
smPriority
Options:
None.
Sample Output 1:
-> smPriority
The SM Priority is 0
NOTES: The priority of the Subnet Manager (SM) determines which subnet
manager will become the master SM for the fabric. Zero is the lowest priority and
fifteen is the highest. The SM with the highest priority becomes the master SM for
the fabric. The elevated priority value determines what the priority of the SM will be
if it becomes the Master. This allows persistent failovers that do not automatically
fail back by configuring the elevated priority to be higher than all normal priorities.
This feature is effectively disabled when set to the default of zero. The subnet
manager must be running to display the priority.
smSweepRate
Display or dynamically set the sweep rate of the subnet manager.
Syntax:
smSweepRate [sweepRate]
Options:
sweepRate
The sweep rate (in seconds) of the subnet manager. Valid values are 3-86400, or 0 to turn
the sweep off. The sweepRate is the interval between the end of one sweep and the start of
the next sweep.
Sample Output:
-> smSweepRate 300
The SM sweep rate has been set to 300 seconds
