NAME
     dat.conf - DAT static registry

SYNOPSIS
     /etc/dat/dat.conf

DESCRIPTION
     The DAT static registry, /etc/dat/dat.conf is a  system-wide
     data  resource  maintained by the system administrative com-
     mand datadm(1M).

     /etc/dat/dat.conf contains a list of interface adapters sup-
     ported  by  uDAPL service providers. An interface adapter on
     Infiniband (IB) corresponds to an IPoIB device instance, for
     example,  ibd0. An IPoIB device name represents an IP inter-
     face plumbed by ifconfig(1M) on an IB partition/Host Channel
     Adapter port combination.

     Each entry in the DAT static registry is a single line  that
     contains  eight  fields.  Fields are separated by a <SPACE>.
     Lines that begin with a pound sign (#) are  considered  com-
     ments. All characters that follow the # are ignored. Enclose
     Solaris specific strings (Solaris_specific_string) and  ser-
     vice       provider's       instance      data      (service
     _provider_instance_data) in quotes.

     The following shows the order of the fields  in  a  dat.conf
     entry:


     "interface_adapter_name" "API_version" "threadsafe | nonthreadsafe" \
     "default | nondefault" "service_provider_library_pathname" \
     "service_provider_version" "service _provider_instance_data"\
     "Solaris_specific_string"



     The fields are defined as follows:

     interface_adapter_name

         Specifies the Interface Adapter (IA) name. In  IB,  this
         is  the  IPoIB  device instance name, for example, ibd0.
         This  represents  an  IP  interface  plumbed  on  an  IB
         partition/port combination of the HCA.



     API_version

         Specifies  the  API  version  of  the  service   provide
         library: For example, "u"major.minor is u1.2.

     threadsafe | nonthreadsafe

         Specifies a threadsafe or non-threadsafe library.



     default | nondefault

         Specifies a default or non-default version of library. A
         service  provider  can  offer  several  versions  of the
         library. If so, one version  is  designated  as  default
         with the rest as nondefault.



     service_provider_library_pathname

         Specifies the pathname of the library image.



     service_provider_version

         Specifies the version of the service provider.  By  con-
         vention, specify the company stock symbol as the service
         provider, followed by major and minor  version  numbers,
         for example, SUNW1.0.



     service _provider_instance_data

         Specifies the service provider instance data.



     Solaris_specific_string

         Specifies a platform specific string, for  example,  the
         device name in the service_provider.conf file.



EXAMPLES
     Example 1: Sample dat.conf File

     The following dat.conf file shows a uDAPL 1.2  service  pro-
     vider for tavor, udapl_tavor.so.1 supporting two interfaces,
     ibd0 and ibd1:

     service_provider.conf(4), attributes(5)

NOTES
     An empty dat.conf is created during the  package  SUNWudaplr
     installation  if  no  file is present beforehand. Entries in
     the file are added or removed by running datadm(1M).

     The content of the platform specific string does not consti-
     tute  an API. It is generated by datadm(1M) and might have a
     different content or interpretation in a future release.
