Abstract: Systems and methods for unicast traffic across multiple subnets in a high performance computing environment. In accordance with an embodiment, a local inter-subnet manager (ISM) can allocate at least one router port in the local subnet for receiving traffic for a relevant end node belonging to an inter-subnet partition (ISP) for each remote subnet that also comprises end nodes sharing a same ISP membership, and can also set up address mappings for the relevant GID(s) (e.g., GID or GUID to LID mapping).

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for supporting scalable multi-homed routing for virtual switch based host channel adapter (HCA) virtualization in a subnet. An exemplary method can provide one or more switches, a plurality of host channel adapters, a plurality of hypervisors, and a plurality of virtual machines. The method can arrange the plurality of host channel adapters with one or more of a virtual switch with prepopulated local identifiers (LIDs) architecture or a virtual switch with dynamic LID assignment architecture. The method can further perform a multi-homed routing for the subnet, wherein at least one of the plurality of host channel adapters comprises two virtual switches, wherein the two virtual switches are treated as endpoints of the subnet, and wherein the multi-homed routing for the subnet ensures that each the two virtual switches are routed through independent paths.

Abstract: Systems and methods for supporting SMA level abstractions at router ports for GRH to LRH mapping tables in a high performance computing environment. Ingress port mapping of GRH to new LRH can be reduced to minimally include DGID to DLID mapping. By further reducing the complexity by assuming all packets received at a subnet are addressed to a correct subnet (and also taking into account that correct subnet destination can be checked independently of the individual mapping entries), the DGID address can be simplified to a DGUID address, allowing for additional mappings within a same memory size.

Abstract: Systems and methods for defining virtual machine fabric profiles of virtual machines. An exemplary embodiment can provide a virtual machine identifier, a virtual host channel adapter instance ID, and a virtual globally unique identifier. The virtual machine identifier, virtual host channel adapter instance ID, and virtual globally unique identifier can be mapped to each other so that the virtual host channel adapter instance ID, and virtual globally unique identifier can be retrieved through access to the virtual machine identifier. Further, a relationship can be created between a P_Key that defines an admin partition and the virtual globally unique identifier, where the relationship between the P_Key and the virtual globally unique identifier defines the virtual globally unique identifier as a member of the admin partition defined by the P_Key.

Abstract: Systems and methods for using a virtual machine fabric profiles to reduce virtual machine downtime during migration. An exemplary embodiment can provide a subnet manager (SM) and a virtual machine fabric profile that is accessible by the subnet manager, and where the virtual machine fabric profile includes a virtual host channel adapter (vHCA) configuration. The SM can receive a request to preregister the vHCA with a first physical host channel adapter (HCA) while the vHCA is already actively registered with a second physical HCA. The subnet manager can send the vHCA configuration to the first physical HCA for preregistration. After preregistration, the virtual link between the vHCA and a vSwitch of the first physical HCA can be left unestablished, until the SM determines that a virtual link between the vHCA and a vSwitch on the second physical HCA has been disconnected.

Abstract: Systems and methods to provide default multicast group (MCG) proxy for scalable forwarding of announcements and information request intercepting in a high performance computing environment, in accordance with an embodiment. In accordance with an embodiment, in order to scale the protocols to cover arbitrary number of nodes, a hierarchical scheme can be introduced where the total system is divided into multiple domains where each such domain is represented by an MCG Proxy instance for the relevant protocols.

Abstract: Systems and methods for supporting dual-port virtual router in a high performance computing environment. In accordance with an embodiment, a dual port router abstraction can provide a simple way for enabling subnet-to-subnet router functionality to be defined based on a switch hardware implementation. A virtual dual-port router can logically be connected outside a corresponding switch port. This virtual dual-port router can provide an InfiniBand specification compliant view to a standard management entity, such as a Subnet Manager. In accordance with an embodiment, a dual-ported router model implies that different subnets can be connected in a way where each subnet fully controls the forwarding of packets as well as address mappings in the ingress path to the subnet.

Abstract: Systems and methods for InfiniBand fabric optimizations to minimize SA access and startup failover times. A system can comprise one or more microprocessors, a first subnet, the first subnet comprising a plurality of switches, a plurality of host channel adapters, a plurality of hosts, and a subnet manager, the subnet manager running on one of the one or more switches and the plurality of host channel adapters. The subnet manager can be configured to determine that the plurality of hosts and the plurality of switches support a same set of capabilities. On such determination, the subnet manager can configure an SMA flag, the flag indicating that a condition can be set for each of the host channel adapter ports.

Abstract: A system and method can support subnet management in a network environment, such as an engineered system for middleware and application execution or a middleware machine environment. A subnet manager (SM) can retrieve information for setting up a reliable connection (RC) between a subnet administrator (SA) and a client node in a subnet. Furthermore, the system can set up one or more connection states for a port associated with the SM node to establish the RC connection between the port associated with the SM node and a port associated with said client node. Then, the SM can activate the port associated with said client node.
