NDIS 5.3 IPoIB for Server 2003 & XP. uDAPL 2.0.25 code base: No longer supporting uDAT/uDAPL version 1.0, uDAT/uDAPL version 2.0 only. OpenSM upgraded to version 3.3.3 (see %windir%\temp\osm.log for SM details). WinOF installer upgraded to WIX 3.0 2) Bug fixes in IB Core IPoIB WSD DAT/DAPL WinVerbs WinMAD OFED (Open Fabrics Enterprise Distribution [Linux]) verbs API IPoIB SRP WinOF Installer **** Known Issues **** HCA drivers are reclassified as BOOT_START drivers to support booting from an SRP IOC. An unfortunate side-effect is when WinOF 2.2 is installed on a system for the first time, after installation a mandatory reboot is Required by Windows. After the WinOF.msi file has started installation, an errant "Welcome to the Found New Hardware Wizard" window 'may' popup; XP & Svr 2003. Just ignore or 'cancel' the errant FNHW popup window in order to proceed with the installation. XP requires a cancel, for WLH & WNET, the notifier will disappear on their own. You do need to answer 'Yes' or 'Continue' to popup windows which refer to Non-Logo'ed (aka, Non-WHQL'ed) drivers being installed. If the install appears to hang, look around for popup windows requesting input which are covered by other windows. Such is the case on Server 2008 initial install - Answer 'yes' to always trust the OpenFabrics Alliance as a SW publisher. Please: Read the Release_notes.htm file! make 'sure' your HCA firmware is recent: vstat.exe displays HCA firmware version & PSID. flint.exe (found in the Mellanox firmware tools package) displays PSID. Thank you, WinOF Developers. _______________________________________________ ofw mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openfabrics.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/ofw
