Hi, I am installing OFED from source (install all) but that creates lots of RPMS which got installed by the OFED install script. When I then do an yum update I get something like (and many more)
Error: Missing Dependency: libopensm.so.1 is needed by package ibutils Installed version of ibutils is libutils-1.2-1.ofed1.4.rc6 and libopensm.so.1 is provided by OFED package opensm-libs-3.2.4_20081127_a92a5e5-1.ofed1.4.rc6 Should I just install opensm-libs from the CentOS repositories as well or does that mess up everything? Furthermore, when I compile/install OFED on the master node, how do I get all the packages on the nodes? Should I really compile it in a chroot environment in the client image as described in the support pages of OSCAR? Or is there a different way? For compiling OFED I had to install a lot of additional packages via yum which I probably do not want/need to have on the nodes. Sorry for all these questions, but I have to admit that I am at this point not very comfortable with managing the master node via yum, the images and clients via yume plus additional software like OFED.
