[openfabrics-ewg] OFED-1.0-rc6 is available

[Sharma, Karun]

Hi Vlad:
 
See below for the output. I performed following steps:
1. After installing RC6 and configuring IB interfaces during the install process, i rebooted the system.
 
2. Then I did ifconfig ib0. It doesn't show the ip address configured during install.
 
3. After that I checked the status of openibd. It was running fine and showing me ib0 and ib1 as active devices.
 
4. Then I restarted openibd. After this restart, I was able to see the IP address of ib0 and ib1 interfaces. 
 
But after reboot we should see the IP addresses and should not restart openibd everytime after reboot.
Now if I again reboot the system, I will lose the ip addresses of IB interfaces. I am able to reproduce it.
 
Thanks,
Karun

Hi Karun,
I can't reproduce this issue.
Please try '/etc/init.d/openibd restart' and send me the output.

Please check that ifcfg-ib0 located under /etc/sysconfig/network on SuSE and
under /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts on RedHat/Fedora.
Thanks,

Regards,
Vladimir
