[ofa-general] ibv_ud_pingpong error

[Jeffrey Wong]

Seems that if I'm logged in as root the command works fine without
making any settings changes, but if I'm logged in as another user I am
getting the same error.  Are there permissions that I need to set on
binaries in order to run the pingpong as a regular user instead of root.


Thanks,
Jeff

    Hi,
   If you are using bash shell do something like:

    ulimit -l unlimited

  to get rid of that limit and try again.  You can alternatively set
it to a large number.  Note that using ulimit only changes the limit
in the current shell, you'll have to edit system-wide configuration
file to make it permanent.

  Hope this helps.
