-g ?

Is there any other way to proceed with such configuration - directed

Is there any plan to add multi-port feature to OpenSM



Not that I'm aware of. There is no plan to change the OpenSM architecture to
make a single instance support multiple subnets.

In this configuration, each port is a separate IB subnet (and there is an SM
for each subnet). If you want to run a single subnet, you need at least one
switch.
