[openib-general] OpenSM - guid2lid cache file questions

[Leonid Arsh]

Hi Hal,

  Thank you for your reply.

Probably I wasn't clear.

I have a problem when OpenSM, being started, reads an out-if-date guid2lid file.
OpenSM changes LIDs in this case.
I don't want  the LIDs to be changed.
As I understand it, the '-r' option, on the contrary, causes the SM to
reassign all the LIDs.

I could just remove the file to handle the problem.
I'd like to know if there is a way to do it without touching the file.

Thanks,
    Leonid
