QLogic OFED+ Host Software Page 15 of 20
By default the installation will no longer start iba_mon. Use of iba_mon is not
recommended when using the 6.0 QLogic FM and its new PM capabilities.
The QLogic Distributed SA (qlogic_sa) is now available. This feature can be used by
MPIs using the QLogic optimized PSM API to obtain proper vFabric, LMC and/or
Mesh/Torus path information.
CLI command iba_saquery now supports vfinfo, vfinfocsv and vfinfocvs2
output to provide information about virtual fabrics in the QLogic FM.
CLI command iba_saquery now supports query by pkey (-k), ServiceID (0S) or SL
(-L) for o path.
CLI command iba_saquery now supports query by pkey (-k) for o mcmember.
Script file /etc/init.d/iba_portconfig is a new startup script that can be edited
and enabled to force link speed and other link attributes on the Host Channel
Adapter each time a server boots.
The do_build, do_mvapich_build, do_openmpi_build and do_mvapich2_build
scripts now support building for QLogic’s optimized PSM interface and use the same
qlc suffix as the QLogic supplied pre-built MPIs. This interface can also be selected
on the command line using the Q option.
CLI commands p1info and p2info now support a q option, that shows the QSFP
information for QLogic QDR Host Channel Adapters.
CLI commands iba_smaquery and iba_pmaquery are new low-level tools that issue
raw SMA or PMA queries to any node in the fabric.
CLI command iba_paquery is a new low-level tool to issue queries to the 6.0 QLogic
Fabric Manager’s PM.
QLogic OFED+ Host software package version 5.1.0.2.1, 5.1.0.2.8, and 5.1.0.3.13 do not
have any new features.
QLogic OFED+ Host software package version 5.1.0.0.49 includes the following new
features:
OFED has been upgraded to version 1.4.2.
When installing/uninstalling the user will be prompted for any effects on iSCSI RPMs
supplied by vendors other than OFED (indicated by "Voltaire Inc." in rpm VENDOR
field). This will prevent QLogic OFED installations from unexpectedly uninstalling
iSCSI.
Installation prompts for rebuilding OFED RPMs are done prior to building any RPMs,
therefore avoiding the need for the user to wait for each one to build before
answering the next question. Also, dependency checks for builds are now done and
all errors are reported prior to doing any builds. This check provides a concise
summary of dependencies. It also allows the build to fail earlier, avoiding a partial
install/partial build situation due to missed dependencies.
