Download @ http://www.openfabrics.org/downloads/WinOF/v2.0_rc2/


What's changed:

IPoIB path record handling modified to perform in a timely manner under cluster stress.

IB bus devices (IPoIB & IOUs) come back after being disabled.

Network Direct (ND) issues resolved.

IPoIB partition management tool 'part_man' documentation - see manual->tools->part_man.

SRP cable unplug BSOD resolved.


Known Problems:
---------------

Vista Installs must be done from a privileged command window, administrator priv's are
insufficient.

Vista installs from a remote desktop lose their connection after IPoIB installs.

Server 2003 - errant Found New Hardware windows still pop up; nature of the beast.

HPC installs cause Network Manager freeze.

Large concurrent file transfers with filesystem mapped using IPoIB cause
unreasonable transfer slow down.
