Thank you AVM and Surya for your responses. Does opensaf require that there is a mapping between TIPC_NODEID and /var/lib/opensaf/node_id ? For example if CHASSIS_ID=2 would that work ?

Is there a reason behind this ? [Surya] As opensaf is not supporting the inter chassis communication, it is not taken into consideration while generating the TIPC node id. [AVM] CHASSIS_ID is used to construct Controller/payload node_id(/var/lib/opensaf/node_id) "printf "00%02x%02x%02x\n" $CHASSIS_ID $SLOT_ID $SUBSLOT_ID > $pkglocalstatedir/node_id " A related question would be what is the status of TIPC versus TCP as the transport for OpenSAF, looking through some of the bug tickets seems to suggest that in future TCP would be the default transport ? [AVM] Please check below user list mail with subject : [users] MDS over TCP is the default transport in default staging branch (for upcoming 4.4) ================================================================================================================================ On 10/16/2013 3:18 PM, A V Mahesh wrote: Hi All, Please note that from change-set 4540 onwards TCP is the default transport in the default staging branch(for upcoming 4.4). Refer ticket #232 raised to improve usability by not having the overhead to build/download/install TIPC and as a kernel module. (A) The default behavior is that OpenSAF is built for TCP, i.e one just has to follow the usual steps as below : Build steps: Step 1 ./bootstrap.sh Step 2 ./configure (TIPC [default=no] ) Step 3 make rpm or make install Configuration Steps to use TCP: Step 1 Update DTM_NODE_IP=<> with ip address of the local node in /etc/opensaf/dtm.conf (B) To build OpenSAF binaries with capability for both TCP and TIPC, use the --enable-tipc option as below: Build steps: Step 1 ./bootstrap.sh Step 2 ./configure --enable-tipc (TIPC [enable=yes] ) Step 3 make rpm or make install Configuration Steps to use TIPC: Step 1 set MDS_TRANSPORT=TIPC in /etc/opensaf/nid.conf Step 2 Change TIPC_ETH_IF to your network interface name, e.g. eth3 in /etc/opensaf/nid.conf Step 3 Change TIPC_NET_ID to your TIPC net-id ,e.g 4711 in /etc/opensaf/nid.conf NOTE: Configuration of TIPC network id and interface name, have been moved from "/etc/opensaf/nodeinit.conf" to "/etc/opensaf/nid.conf" OpenSAF users that use SMF for middleware upgrades should update their upgrade scripts to backup theTIPC Network interface name TIPC net-id from "/etc/opensaf/nodeinit.conf" and restore them to "/etc/opensaf/nid.conf" . Please also check the `README` ,`INSTALL`, `00-README.conf` & `00-README.debug` for details.
