The MVAPICH team is pleased to announce the release of OSU InfiniBand Network
Analysis and Monitoring (INAM) Tool v0.9.7.

OSU INAM monitors InfiniBand clusters in real time by querying various subnet
management entities in the network. It is also capable of interacting with the
MVAPICH2-X software stack to gain insights into the communication pattern of the
application and classify the data transferred into Point-to-Point, Collective
and Remote Memory Access (RMA). OSU INAM can also remotely monitor several
parameters of MPI processes in conjunction with MVAPICH2-X.
