Cable plugin and its parameters are now obsolete and not supported in the CMIS cables, please use --get_phy_info instead.
Cable plugin collects various information from the cables attached to the fabric ports.
Parameter | Description |
--get_cable_info | Gets cable info from the fabric ports and dump cable info to ibdiagnet2.db_csv and ibdiagnet2.cables. Not supported in CMIS cables, --get_phy_info should be used instead. |
--cable_info_disconnected | Gets cable info on disconnected ports (the cable is attached only to the switch port). This option is applicable with the "get-cable-info" flag. Data will be dumped to ibdiagnet2.db_csv and ibdiagnet2.cables. Not supported in CMIS cables, --get_phy_info and --phy_cable_disconnected should be used instead. |
Example:
ibdiagnet --get-cable-info --cable_info_disconnected
The data is dumped to the ibdiagnet2.cables file in the following format:
