16.6 Delete a Partition
You can delete a non-default partition by running the following command:
# smpartition delete -n myIPoIB
This command deletes the myIPoIB partition.
Note:
Do not attempt to delete the default partition.
16.7 Create a Partition for EoIB and Associating the pkey with a VNIC and
VLAN
You can create a partition for EoIB (both inbound and outbound) and associate the
partition's pkey with a VLAN and VNIC on the edge network.
Note:
The port GUID values, MAC addresses, VLAN IDs, compute node names,
gateway switch names, and Ethernet connector names used in this procedure
are examples only.
1. At the command prompt on one of the gateway switches, run the following
command:
el01gw04# listlinkup | grep Bridge
The following is an example of the output of the lislinkup command:
Connector 0A-ETH Present
Bridge-0 Port 0A-ETH-1 (Bridge-0-2) up (Enabled)
Bridge-0 Port 0A-ETH-2 (Bridge-0-2) up (Enabled)
Bridge-0 Port 0A-ETH-3 (Bridge-0-1) up (Enabled)
Bridge-0 Port 0A-ETH-4 (Bridge-0-1) up (Enabled)
Bridge-0 Port 1A-ETH-1 (Bridge-1-2) down (Enabled)
Bridge-0 Port 1A-ETH-2 (Bridge-1-2) down (Enabled)
Bridge-0 Port 1A-ETH-3 (Bridge-1-1) up (Enabled)
Bridge-0 Port 1A-ETH-4 (Bridge-1-1) up (Enabled)
From this example, identify the uplinks. You can determine that you can use any
of the following Ethernet connectors for creating a VNIC:
• 0A-ETH-1
• 0A-ETH-2
• 0A-ETH-3
• 0A-ETH-4
• 1A-ETH-3
• 1A-ETH-4
