Here is the output of saquery. I am using Qlogic 9024 FC unmanaged switch.
Only one SM exists in the subnet.
# saquery -s
IsSM ports
PortInfoRecord dump:
EndPortLid..............0x1
PortNum.................0x1
base_lid................0x1
master_sm_base_lid......0x1
capability_mask.........0x2500A6A
IsSMdisabled ports
Thanks!

Do you have a Linux end node ? If so, saquery -s there will tell how
many SMs are on your subnet.
