I tried installing it on Win Server 2008 with ConnectX on box and have following questions:-- 1) If I select Mellanox InfiniHost package, then installation ends prematurely (It gives error "mthca not installed" and installation ends) Are Mellanox InfiniHost and Mellanox ConnectX packages mutually exclusive? Yes! Different hardware devices and totally different hardware drivers. After I installed packages for ConnectX and other ULPs, I re ran the installer and went for "change" option and included Mellanox InfiniHost and surprisingly it didn't complain and it got installed. What were you attempting to accomplish using the 'change' option? If you only have ConnectX hardware, then why install mthca hardware driver? I would uninstall everything and start over, installing only the ConnectX driver. stan. 2) I am getting 5 devices being created (as shown in device manager) under following device types (Please see the attached screen shot) InfiniBand Channel Adapters and Mellanox ConnectX Adapters Only one device in each device type is working fine while others are not functions properly (giving Dev mgr error code 10) Why do we get 5 different device creations of each of above device types and why all devices are not working properly. Server 2008 has some curious install side effects after failed installations. These side effects are not fully understood at this point in time. If you would kindly cut-paste the last entries in %windir%\inf\setupapi.dev.log which reference mlx4 and/or WinOF this would assist in understanding the problems. Following is the log logged in setupapi.dev.log between two boots >>> [Device Install (Hardware initiated) - >>> PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_1A38&SUBSYS_978015D9&REV_31\3&18d45aa6&0&40] >>> Section start 2008/09/04 21:52:18.953 ump: Creating Install Process: DrvInst.exe 21:52:18.984 ndv: Retrieving device info... ndv: Setting device parameters... ndv: Building driver list... dvi: {Build Driver List} 21:52:19.328 dvi: Searching for hardware ID(s): dvi: pci\ven_8086&dev_1a38&subsys_978015d9&rev_31 dvi: pci\ven_8086&dev_1a38&subsys_978015d9 dvi: pci\ven_8086&dev_1a38&cc_088000 dvi: pci\ven_8086&dev_1a38&cc_0880 dvi: Searching for compatible ID(s): dvi: pci\ven_8086&dev_1a38&rev_31 dvi: pci\ven_8086&dev_1a38 dvi: pci\ven_8086&cc_088000 dvi: pci\ven_8086&cc_0880 dvi: pci\ven_8086 dvi: pci\cc_088000 dvi: pci\cc_0880 dvi: Enumerating INFs from path list 'C:\Windows\INF' inf: Searched 0 potential matches in published INF directory inf: Searched 32 INFs in directory: 'C:\Windows\INF' dvi: {Build Driver List - exit(0x00000000)} 21:52:21.031 ndv: Selecting best match... dvi: {DIF_SELECTBESTCOMPATDRV} 21:52:21.031 dvi: No class installer for 'Base System Device' dvi: No CoInstallers found dvi: Default installer: Enter 21:52:21.156 dvi: {Select Best Driver} ! dvi: Selecting driver failed(0xe0000228) dvi: {Select Best Driver - exit(0xe0000228)} ! dvi: Default installer: failed! ! dvi: Error 0xe0000228: There are no compatible drivers for this device. dvi: {DIF_SELECTBESTCOMPATDRV - exit(0xe0000228)} 21:52:21.156 ndv: {Core Device Install} ndv: Device install status=0xe0000203 ndv: Performing device install final cleanup... ! ndv: Queueing up error report since device installation failed... ndv: {Core Device Install - exit(0xe0000203)} ump: Server install process exited with code 0xe0000203 21:52:21.218 <<< Section end 2008/09/04 21:52:21.234 <<< [Exit status: FAILURE(0xe0000203)] 3) Similarly InfiniBand I/O Unit Device (created under System devices type in dev manager) is not working properly (Please see the attached screen shot) What does the device manager view properties for the IB I/O Unit Device have to say about an error code? Windows cannot load the device driver for this hardware. The driver may be corrupted or missing.
