Hi folks:
Built OFED-1.2-rc4 on OpenSuSE 10.2, works fine as long as I turn of
32-bit build, and update to a 2.6.20 kernel. Installed the RPMs after
build, and the system appears to be fine/well behaved. Is there a
OFED-specific technique to have the ib0 interface configure at boot
time, after drivers load? This might be distribution specific.
I created a file named /etc/sysconfig/network/ifcfg-ib0 which contained
BOOTPROTO='static'
MTU=''
REMOTE_IPADDR=''
STARTMODE='onboot'
USERCONTROL='no'
NETMASK='255.255.0.0'
IPADDR='10.1.32.2'
DEVICE='ib0'
Bringing the interface up with an 'ifconfig ib0 up' doesn't seem to
assign the IP address and netmask to it.
Hence my question. Is there an OFED specific method of configuring this
(e.g. a config file I need to edit/create), or is it distribution
dependent?
If I force the issue with an ifconfig, it looks like it works fine. This
is ok as a work around, and I can create an /etc/init.d/ib or similar to
force the issue. I would prefer to do this "the right way", and if
there is someone with guidance/pointers as to what that is, I would
prefer to follow that.
Thanks.
Joe
Hi Joe,
You can do one of the following to set ib0 configuration from ifcfg-ib0:
* ifup ib0
* /etc/init.d/openibd restart

Vladimir
