SM Logs
SM logs include details of reported errors, all errors reported in opensm.log should be treated as indicators of IB fabric health.
SM logs path:
When only OpenSM is running without UFM: /var/log/opensm.log
When OpenSM is running with UFM on a Docker, enter the container:
docker exec -it ufm bash
the path is: /opt/ufm/files/log/opensm.log
The SM log file should include the message "SUBNET UP" if OpenSM was able to set up the subnet correctly.
The SM log file size can be changed. You can choose how often a new SM log file will be created: daily, weekly (default), monthly.
The SM log file will reach its maximum log size, or it will obey the rotational periodically order.
Modify the OpenSM log maximum file size:
vi /opt/ufm/files/conf/opensm/opensm.conf log_max_size
Modify the OpenSM log frequency rotation:
vi /etc/logrotate.d/opensm
Locate the subnet manager:
