[ofw] Opensm fails to start as a service?

[Tzachi Dar]

Just to make sure what Jan wrote more clearer.

On the registry under:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\opensm


You should see something like this:
ImagePath   "G:\Program Files\Mellanox\WinIB\Tools\opensm.exe" --service

If you have this set, than things should work well.

Thanks
Tzachi
