Hello

I want to put IB HCA port into non-default partition to create separate network 
on my IB fabric. On IB switch (Voltaire ISR9096) I created network with 
non-default partition key 0x7ffe and add HCA port to this partition.

But this IB-VPPA was displayed as unconfigured on Solaris host
ib::3BA0001004181,ffff,ipib    IB-VPPA      connected    configured   ok
ib::3BA0001004182,fffe,ipib    IB-VPPA      connected    unconfigured unknown
ib::3BA0001004182,ffff,ipib    IB-VPPA      connected    configured   ok

Configuration of new VPPA with cfgadm was unsuccessful:
# cfgadm -c configure ib::3BA0001004182,fffe,ipib
Configure the device: /devices/ib:fabric::3BA0001004182,fffe,ipib
This operation will suspend activity on the IB device
Continue (yes/no)? yes
cfgadm: Hardware specific failure: configure operation failed ap_id: 
/devices/ib:fabric::3BA0001004182,fffe,ipib

I unconfigured VPPA with default partition key (0xffff) on HCA port 
0x3BA0001004182 and issued cfgadm for VPPA with pkey 0xfffe again - the same 
effect.
I tried this on Solaris 10 8/07 and OpenSolaris b72 with the same result - no 
success ;)

Is it possible to configure VPPA with non-default pkey on Solaris ?
Is it possible to configure more than 1 IPIB VPPA on single HCA port ?

How to perform these configurations ?

Thanks in advance.

Regards,

Denis
