Ahh...

We are using QLogic's distribution of OFED, and they had disabled this script. When I run it manually, it puts the hostname in the node description and works like a charm.

Thanks!

Okay, a different question has just come up.

On my DDR IB fabric, using QLogic HCAs, when I run ibnetdiscover, I
don't see the hostname in the node description, but I do see "HCA-1". On
a different cluster, using Mellanox HCAs (and redhat's OFED), I do see
the hostnames in the node description.
set_nodedesc.sh is part of the infiniband-diags package.  I believe RHEL runs 
this by default at boot.  It will set the nodedesc as the hostname.  When I 
wrote the script, I asked on the list if the method I was using would work for 
all HCA's and I was told that it would.

Could you run that script on a node by hand and see if it will at least work 
with the QLogic HCA's?

If this works then you will need to figure out why it is not run at boot.

Thanks,
Ira

So here's my questions: How does ibnetdiscover find the hostname/node
description? Is there an option somewhere in OFED on the node that I
need to set to allow this name to show in ibnetdiscover?

Hi,

I'm looking for a mailing list where opensm developers and/or users might be
listening. Does anyone here know where I could find a list with such people?

It's on this list too :-)
