[ofw] WinOF 2.0.2 installer and support for Mellanox QDR HCA

[Smith, Stan]

OK - when you uninstalled did you observe any irregularities?

>From an Privileged Administrator command window, try the following command

start/wait msiexec /I WinOF_2-0-2_x64.msi

If above command fails, then download, then execute, from an Privileged Administrator command window,  ibcleanup.bat from http://www.openfabrics.org/downloads/WinOF/etc/ <http://www.openfabrics.org/downloads/WinOF/etc/>  .

When finished, reboot.

retry previous msiexec command.

Hi,
   OS is Windows 2008 Server(Enterprise). Yes, I explicity selected ConnectX HCA driver.

   Yes, I did install WinOF 2.0.2 for a Infinihost HCA(sinai) before this. I uninstalled the drivers, plugged out that HCA and trying to install QDR HCA on the same setup.

    Error message I see is "mlx4_hca install Err(2) cmd.exe /c cd /d c:\program files (x86)\WinOF\IBCore & devman.exe update mlx4_hca.inf MLX4\CONNECTX_HCA"

Thanks,
NapoleonP

Hello,
  Which Windows OS & processor arch were you attempting a WinOF 2.0.2 install on?

Did you explicitly select a ConnectX HCA driver?

What was the installer error message?

Have you ever installed WinOF on this system?

Bottom line the Mellanox QDR HCA(MT26428 ) should install with no problems.

stan.

Hi,
   I tried installing drivers for Mellanox QDR HCA(MT26428 ) using WinOF 2.0.2 installer and I see the installer exits prematurely citing an error. I don't see a mention of support for QDR HCA in the README or Release-notes. Info on whether WinOF 2.0.2 installer supports QDR HCA will be really helpful.

Thanks,
NapoleonP
PS: on the related note WinOF at mellanox site says QDR HCA is supported.
