[openib-general] IB initialization

[Chris Worley]

Hal,

You're correct... the results of the scans are in /var/log/osm.log.  I
was expecting the "-console" mode to show more.

In looking at the /var/log/osm.log I'm seeing a lot of:

Reporting Generic Notice type:4 num:144

For different GUIDs.  Is there a place to look these up?

I still don't have IPoIB running, and ibv_devinfo says I'm not setup
right either (couldn't open a device).

Thanks,

Chris
