This is may be because you have the SM running. Try /etc/init.d/opensmd
stop. If that doesn't work you'll want to find out what is actually
using it. When you say RDMA, are you doing iSER or SRP? If that's the
case, you'll need to free it up by removing it as a target or just
unloading the modules.<br>

style="font-size: 11pt;">Well, that would work, but it fails, telling
me the mlx4_ib module is in use. I suspect this is because there are
active RDMA connections on it, which is the reason I want to bring it
down (I’m doing QA, I need to know what happens if the card goes
offline).<br>

<blockquote><font face="Calibri, Verdana, Helvetica, Arial"><span
style="font-size: 11pt;"> how do I take IB interfaces offline? Hello,
everyone. I wonder if anyone can tell me how to take an IB interface
offline on a running Linux (CENTOS 5 with OFED 1.3.1) system? I can
cause it to loose its IP address with ifdown but it seems that the IP
address is only involved in establishing new connections and removing
it doesn’t prevent the device from fielding traffic on established
connections.<br>
<br>
Does anybody know how this is done? <br>
