SYNOPSIS         top

       ibcheckerrors [-h] [-b] [-v] [-N | -nocolor] [<topology-file> | -C

DESCRIPTION         top

       ibcheckerrors is a script which uses a full topology file that was
       created by ibnetdiscover, scans the network to validate the
       connectivity and reports errors (from port counters).

OPTIONS         top

       -v   increase the verbosity level

       -b   brief mode. Reduce the output to show only if errors are
       present,
            not what they are.

       -N | -nocolor  use mono rather than color mode

       -C <ca_name>   use the specified ca_name.

       -P <ca_port>   use the specified ca_port.

       -t <timeout_ms> override the default timeout for the solicited
       mads.
