Hi Christopher,

Unfortunately, we didn't handle 'nicextraparams' in the code of IB part,
so it don't work. maybe we can support it in future, but now we don't have
enough resource to do it,
If you do need this feature, you can modify the code by yourself, if you
can pull a request in github and contribute the code to xcat, we are so
appreciate.
BTW,  we move xcat to github now, the link is  https://github.com/xcat2/


 Best Regards!

Close, this works for us:

    nicextraparams.ib0=MTU=65520 CONNECTED_MODE=yes

This is because we want to run with jumbo frames for our IB network as
we're running GPFS over IPoIB.

I don't think I ever said thanks to the xCAT developers for implementing
this for us.  So thanks! :-)

Best of luck,
Chris
