[openfabrics-ewg] [openib-general] OFED 1.1 RC7

[Sharma, Karun]

Hi
 
I think that I am seeing bug # 247 with RC7.
 
I configured ipoib-ha as specified in release notes on RHEL4 up3 servers (x86_64 machines).
I started ping from one server. Simultaneously i executed ipoib_ha.pl script (see below). Then I downed the ib0 interface and expected that ping should recover after sometime. But ping never recovered. Then
I brought up ib0 interface again. Ping got recovered and was successful.
 
Please note that I have only 1 HCA port active. Do we need to have both the HCA ports to be up? Even with 1 HCA port, I am able to add and configure both ib0 and ib1 interfaces. Is it a valid configuration? Do we have any mapping between HCA ports and ib interfaces?
 
Thanks
Karun
