Which doc ?

BTW, what version of OpenSM are you using ?

If I understand your question correctly, OpenIB OpenSM supports multiple
HCA cards. The HCA port is chosen by specifying the port GUID. If one is
not specified, the first available port (which is LinkUp) is chosen.
Both Mellanox and QLogic HCAs can support running an SM.

Let me know if your question was different from what I answered above.
