[ofa-general] Question regarding chkconfig

You need to run set_nodedesc.sh right after the hardware driver is loaded.  We
don't use openibd here so I don't know exactly what it does.  Our modprobe.conf
runs set_nodedesc.sh as part of the "install" command for the hardware so the
node descriptor is set before the node starts responding to MAD's.

So far this has worked for us.
