The infiniband plugin collects information about IB ports. Metrics are gathered from /sys/class/infiniband/DEVICE/port/PORTNUM/*, and Port names are formatted like DEVICE:PORTNUM (see examples below).

Options:

Port Port

Select the port Port. Whether it is collected or ignored depends on the IgnoreSelected setting, see below. As with other plugins that use the daemon's ignorelist functionality, a string that starts and ends with a slash is interpreted as a regular expression. Examples:

Port "mlx5_0:1"
Port "/mthca0:[0-9]/"

See /"IGNORELISTS" for details.

IgnoreSelected true|false
Sets whether selected ports are ignored or if all other ports are ignored. The behavior (hopefully) is intuitive: If no Port option is configured, all ports are collected. If at least one Port option is given and IgnoreSelected is not given or set to false, only matching ports will be collected. If IgnoreSelected is set to true, all ports are collected except the ones matched.
