There is actually an init script for opensm that can be enabled on one 
machine in the subnet (I suppose you could do more if you assigned 
priorities to the machines).  It seems to run fine, but issues this same 
message on shutdown.  So, at least on x86_64, that much is similar, 
opensm issues this warning on shutdown.

However, I don't see this on x86_64.
