Hi Check,
You are correct that OFED 4.x does not support any 6.x RHEL based distros
(see attached readme).
I will bring up this topic in tomorrow's EWG meeting.
Do you know the 800 number for this meeting? Thanks.

Thanks
Rupert

Subject: Re: [ewg] NFS/RDMA question
Thanks Rupert.
I'm thinking out loud here, but my interest is with the many many
deployments that are forced to remain on EL6-based distributions
(Scientific, CentOS) due to application certification constraints.
This includes many in the HPC community, and those who are doing chip CAD,
for example.
OFED / MOFED seems to be the only way to deliver working NFS/RDMA in that
class of environment, as it replaces the NFS/RDMA code that is in Red Hat's
EL6 kernel with newer 3.18 code.
As I understand it, OFED 4 is not supported on EL6-based systems.

OFED Bugzilla is located here: http://bugs.openfabrics.org/
We are now working on OFED 4.8-1 and hope to quickly move to OFED 4.14 so
I think it is unlikely that the EWG would spin a new release for OFED 3.18
but we would be glad to know of the issue so we can resolve it if it still
exist in OFED 4.8-1.

I think, e.g., 3.18.3 is still supported - forwarding to EWG to make sure.

I had one more question about OFED 3.x. Is it still "supported" --
meaning, if an admin applies OFED 3 to, say, CentOS 6, and encounters
a bug, who does she contact for help?
