Hello Sasha,

The customer installed management packages from OFED download on the
openSM node only and kept the rest of nodes with OFED-1.3 stack. 

They also tried the management packages from OFED-1.4. They noticed the
difference. And "saquery -m" didn't work with existing OFED-1.3 stack. 

Could you please give some summary for the difference between these two
openSM versions?

I didn't install it, I just peeked the source code, it looks like the
OFED-1.4 will have one IB MGC with ff10601b...01ff000000, the management
packages for July release is ff10601b...01ffXXXXXX (first node IPv6 SNM
24 bit interface id). Is that right?

Thanks
Shirley
