Getting Started with the IBTrainer

The IBTrainer is an exerciser for InfiniBand, designed as a standalone

unit.

Its primary purpose is to generate, receive, and analyze arbitrary

InfiniBand packets. It can serve as an endnode within an InfiniBand

fabric, insert errors, and monitor protocol compliance and performance

data on the InfiniBand link.

It is controlled by an external PC over a USB connection.

This chapter shows you how to install and use the IBTrainer and its

software. It also provides instructions on how to perform your first test.

Installing the Software

When you insert the delivered CD-ROM, the installation program of the

software starts automatically. If the Autorun function is disabled on your

PC, you can start the installation program by double-clicking on the

setup.exe

file located at the root of the CD-ROM.

If you purchased the IBTrainer Compliance Test Suite, you should have

also received the necessary key. During installation, the installation

program prompts you to enter the key. The Compliance Test Suite

provides you with a large number of easy-to-use tests for quickly

verifying InfiniBand devices.

N O T E

If you did not purchase the IBTrainer Compliance Test Suite, the

installation programs still installs the user interface of the Compliance

Test Suite with a few free tests.
