Would another (non-OpenSM) SM running on another switch mess things up?  We have an IBM blade server with its own IB switch attached to our main switch. Detaching that connection made the problem go away.  Reattaching it makes the problem come back. Do I have to configure something differently in opensmd.conf?<br>
