Hi,

We are having trouble getting a network recognised as existing?!?!


[root@man ~]# lsdef -t network
gen  (network)
ib  (network)
mech-placeholder  (network)
mpi  (network)
noob  (network)
oob  (network)
[root@man ~]# lsdef -t network ib
Object name: ib
    domain=ib
    mask=255.255.254.0
    mgtifname=ib0
    net=10.197.38.0

I can see the network in tabedit/tabdump network.

tabdump nics:

#node,nicips,nichostnamesuffixes,nichostnameprefixes,nictypes,niccustomscripts,nicnetworks,nicalia
ses,nicextraparams,nicdevices,nicsadapter,comments,disable 
"ib","ib0!|(\d+)|10.197.38.($1+0)|","ib0!-ib",,"ib0!Infiniband",,"ib0!ib","ib0!|(\d+)|($1).ib|",,,,,


When I run an "unadorned" makedns, I see a pile of errors that look like this:

Handling 037-ib in /etc/hosts.
Ignoring host 037-ib, it does not belong to any nets defined in networks table 
or the net it 
belongs to is configured to use an external nameserver.

[root@man ~]# cat /etc/hosts | grep 037
10.197.34.37 037 037.gen 
10.197.38.37 037-ib 037-ib.ib 
10.197.36.37 037-mpi 037-mpi.mpi 


(*mpi is a working, MPI over IP network. *ib is a new Infiniband network)

[root@man ~]# lsdef 037 --nics
Object name: 037
    nicaliases.ib0=037.ib
    nicaliases.eno2=037.mpi
    nichostnamesuffixes.ib0=-ib
    nichostnamesuffixes.eno2=-mpi
    nicips.ib0=10.197.38.37
    nicips.eno2=10.197.36.37
    nicnetworks.ib0=ib
    nicnetworks.eno2=mpi
    nictypes.ib0=Infiniband
    nictypes.eno2=Ethernet

Other symptoms include no ib entry in 037:/etc/resolv.com in the search list.

What have we done wrong?
