We are using centos7 and Mellanox ConnectX-5.
We are trying to use ibdump from ibdump-6.0.0-1.50100.0.x86_64.rpm
This is the log…
ibdump
Initiating resources …
searching for IB devices in host
Port active_mtu=1024
MR was registered with addr=0x1648010, lkey=0xafc0, rkey=0xafc0, flags=0x1
Device : “mlx5_0”
Physical port : 1
Link layer : Ethernet
Dump file : sniffer.pcap
Sniffer WQEs (max burst size) : 4096
Failed to set port sniffer1: command interface bad param
ethtool from mlnx-ethtool-5.4-1.50100.0.x86_64.rpm
I then obtained ethtool from mellanox site and
tried to run this command
ethtool --set-priv-flags enp130s0f0 sniffer on
I get
ethtool: bad command line argument(s)
For more information run ethtool -h
How do I run ibdump with connectx-5 successfully?
Thanks
