[ofw] RE: Windows Server 2008 (x64) mthca install via DPINST.EXE

[Fab Tillier]

Hi Stan,

I ran into the same issue with DPInst with the IB driver package.

See the following page for how to decode DPInst return values:

http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms791066.aspx

The error code 80010100 means there was an error (0x80000000), that one driver was installed to the driver store (the 0x00000100), and one driver failed (0x00010000).  If you run DPInst a second time, I suspect you'll see thing work.

What happens is the when the HCA driver's co-installer tries to install the IB Fabric device (the bus driver), it can't find the drivers (not in the driver store, and an assumption in the co-installer doesn't hold on Windows Server 2008.)  However, that first try stages the bus driver's files in the driver store (the 0x00000100 of the return code).  The second time you run DPInst, when the co-installer tries to create the IB Fabric device, it does find the bus driver in the driver store and succeeds, which in turn allows the HCA driver installation to succeed.

IPoIB will install more cleanly once the HCA driver installs.

Hello,
  I've started probing what's involved in a LH WinOF install. In past
email, which I unfortunately misplaced, you had mentioned success using
DPInst.exe to install mthca. My experiments have shown less than
complete results.

 DPInst.exe (version 2.1.0.0 10/8/2007)

>From a folder which contains DPInst.exe mthca.{inf,cdf,sys}
ibinstaller.dll + ib_bus.{inf,cdf,sys}

dpinst /C

Summary - ib_bus.inf appears to install, while mthca.inf fails due to a
missing file?
How did you get the mthca install to work?

What did your DPInst command line look like?

Thanks,

Stan.
