Abstract

In this paper, we present a tool for performance measurement of InfiniBand networks. Our tool analyzes the network and presents a comprehensible visualization of the performance and health of the network. InfiniBand network operators can use the tool to detect potential bottlenecks and optimize the overall performance of their network.
