Unless I've missed it, I've only seen mention of a GUI interactive mode
of install. Is there a command line mode?<br>

<pre wrap="">Stan,
I think we are getting very close for a release.
Most of the issues I've sent where addressed nicely. Few minor issues
(tested on Win2K3, 32bit and XP 64bit):
1. During uninstall on Win2K3 32 bit machine I got the enclosed error
message. After reboot the HW devices where gone but the WinOF package
(as seen in the add remove programs window) was there. I run a second
uninstall, this time it worked just fine.

If there is an uninstall error, should never be the case, the installer
aborts. The last thing the installer does on a successful uninstall is
to delete the WinOF directory. More problematic is the why of the error.
Was the OpenSM_service features selected?
[Erez Cohen] - I'm not sure, I think it did not.
Curious - seems there is a race condition. The VBS statement @ line #69
checks for the existence of the file to delete. If line #69 is True,
then line #70 deletes the file; Line #70 failed in your case?? Only
thing I can imagine is a race condition between control points deleting
the same file.
This is a mystery as I have never witnessed the behavior. Will
investigate
further....RC4 here we come.

<pre wrap="">2. WinOF dir still remains after uninstall on the Win2K3 32bit

Was the feature OpenSM_service selected?
[Erez Cohen] - No.
Was this an uninstall using RC2 or RC3? RC2 had this problem, which was
fixed and verified on 32-bit XP for RC3. I'll see if I can reproduce the
failure.
Upon re-reading your comment, I realized 32bit Win2K, I do not have a
32bit Win2K3 available for test. Seems really odd the x64 Win2K3 works
while the 32bit variant fails on folder removal? Will investigate
further.
[Erez Cohen] - All installs and uninstalls where with RC3.

<pre wrap="">3. When choosing typical installation, OSM as service is installed in
the "Disable" mode. This prevent it to be started with net start
command: I:\>net start opensm
System error 1058 has occurred.
The service cannot be started, either because it is disabled or
because it has no enabled devices associated with it.
I recommend installing the service in the manual mode.

<pre wrap=""><!---->
Be careful of what you ask for. Your previous suggestion stated
installed and 'disabled' :-) A simple tour thru My
Computer->Manage->Services->InfiniBand Subnet Management enables the
service.
Or if you like a command line approach: 'sc config openSM start= "auto"
; sc openSM start'.
The sc.exe interface does not support a start type of 'manual', although
the GUI interface does? 'disabled' is the closest to what you
requested.
[Erez Cohen] - Agree. Will try to be more accurate next time ;)
</pre>
<blockquote type="cite">
<pre wrap="">4. In custom installation there is a component called OSM as service
(or something similar to that). What it actually does is setting the
SM to auto and start it. If not chosen, the SM will be installed but
not started (see 1 above). I think a more appropriate name for this
component/feature is "Enable OpenSM" as it will be installed even if
not chosen.
</pre>
</blockquote>
<pre wrap=""><!---->
Possibly not the best nomenclature; will make the feature more
descriptive of what it actually does. Can you live with
'OpenSM_service_enabled'?
[Erez Cohen] - Yes.

<pre wrap="">5. Uninstall from the start menu pops the "Add Remove Program" window
rather then start the uninstall process.
</pre>
</blockquote>
<pre wrap=""><!---->
I reverted back to the Add/Remove Programs as msiexec.exe did an
incomplete uninstall where ARP did a complete uninstall. Specifically,
msiexec.exe left WinOF in the system search path (IS script function was
not called). Additionally, msiexec left an incomplete ARP entry for
WinOF. When this incomplete WinOF ARP entry was invoked it failed.

<pre wrap="">6. In add remove windows, there is no information in at "click here
for support information" in XP 64 bit.

<pre wrap=""><!---->
Beats me as to why InstallShield-12 has decided not to produce the
support information?
The info is in the .ism file, for some reason IS has decided not to put
to ARP?
Will investigate.
Stan.
