Roland, sorry to bug you on that but... I have a Cisco HCA (PCI-X) hca_type MTS23108 hw_rev a1 fw_ver 1.18.0
hca_type and hw_rev are clearly Mellanox nomenclature. I suspect that this is Cisco FW version #. But all OpenIB documentation is with respect to Mellanox nomenclature. For example from http://www.openib.org/docs/ipoib_faq.txt 1. Verify the firmware version via cat /sys/class/infiniband/mthca0/fw_ver For PCI-X HCAs, version 3.2.0 is recommended. For PCIe HCAs, version 4.5.3 is recommended. ********************************* Is there analogous documentation for Cisco FW? Where is that FW (this is Cougar card)? Are Cisco FWs and Mellanox FW the same? If yes what is the correspondance between the 2 numbering schemas. While this specific question is for Cougar card, the answer should be generic and cover all HCAs. Can the documentation be updated to cover all supported HW regardless of the vendor?
