Hardware Validation

Infiniband Get Unhealthy Ports

Validates InfiniBand network cabling for high-performance computing and GPU interconnect infrastructure. This workflow checks the connectivity of hosts against intended cabling defined in Nautobot. The workflow does not verify traffic flows, but does verify that each device has the expected neighbors.

Experimental

This workflow is experimental and has not completed QA. Use it only in test or pilot environments.
