-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi folks,
xCAT 2.8.1, RHEL 6.4, x86-64. In an attempt to hardwire our IB fabric to connected mode and an MTU of 65520 for GPFS (see bug #3567 as a request to extend xCAT to do this) I've found that specifying "niccustomscripts" in our nics table seems to break the configib IB script. Basically I'd taken the existing configib and copied it to configib.vlsci, then set the niccustomscripts attribute to "ib0!configib.vlsci ib0". That resulted in the script running (kernel modules get unloaded/loaded) but the ifcfg-ib0 file was not being generated. I changed the attribute to just "ib0!configib ib0" to make it run the xCAT provided version and that didn't work either. Removing the attribute made it work again, so I moved the xCAT provided configib out of the way and copied my modified version in its place and it now creates the config file with the CONNECTED_MODE and MTU settings we need. I ran the scripts with the -x flag and with the "niccustomscripts" set it appears the goodnics variable is blank, whereas without that being set it evaluates to "ib0" and all is well with the world. Is there some pilot error on my part causing it to fail, or is it a bug?
