What about the following patch to the configib script? Would this not make sense?

I have gone through the script, and will say that Chris is on the right path, we still define that the nictype is infiniband, so there is no problem with confusion. So we can still check the fact if the nictype is inifniband, and use the NIC_IBNICS paramater

The if statement on line 74 for niccustomscripts should be moved down, and incorporate this.

I would say that this is a bug, and we should try to get this resolved. I am on the same line as Chris here.

The runcmd should be a variable, and the flags should be setup

Confignics doesn't make any assumptions about the custom script it invokes since it could be for any type of device. However, if it isn't a custom script then it is determined to be an ib adapter based on nictypes and configib is invoked with those variables set.

This difference in behaviour seems a bit counter intuitive to me.
