[ DB Machine InfiniBand Cabling Topology Verification Tool ]
Is every external switch connected to every internal switch..........[SUCCESS]
Are any external switches connected to each other....................[SUCCESS]
Are any hosts connected to spine switch..............................[SUCCESS]
Check if all hosts have 2 CAs to different switches..................[SUCCESS]
Leaf switch check: cardinality and even distribution.................[SUCCESS]
Check if each rack has an valid internal ring........................[SUCCESS]


If anything other than "SUCCESS" is reported, investigate and correct the condition.
