face="Times New Roman"> </FONT>Hello,<BR> Woody noticed in some
IB-diags testing that Linux ibnetdiscover outputs a hostname plus the HCA card
name where Windows outputs only the HCA card name?<BR></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>Current speculation is the HCA driver fills in the
NodeDescription fields while processing a received NodeRecord Info request
MAD?</DIV>
<P>Do you know why the WIndows driver supplies only the HCA name where the
Linux HCA driver supplies the actual hostname (as in output from the hostname
cmd) plus the HCA name?</P>
<P>How difficult would it be to correct the Windows HCA drivers to supply the
Hostname in addition to the HCA
name?<BR><BR>thanks,<BR><BR>stan.<BR><BR><BR>#<BR># Topology file: generated on
