TrueScale/
Driver
Major RHEL6.1 distribution of InfiniBand software
(included with the OS distribution) has a
problem that is causing page faults or kernel
panics on greater than 16 core servers when a
TrueScale HCA is installed with an InfiniBand
cable connected to the fabric.
In order to successfully install IFS or QOFED+
Host Software do one of the following:
 Disconnect IB cable
 Blacklist ib_qib driver during RHEL6.1 install
if using PXE boot by adding the following line
blacklist=ib_qib to the ana-
conda-ks.cfg configuration file or kickstart
profile under the kernel options.
If manually installing RHEL6.1, append
blacklist=ib_qib during the install (hit the
Tab option) on the kernel boot line.
Once RHEL6.1 is installed along with IFS or
QOFED+ Host Software, remove the
blacklist=ib_qib line from
/etc/modprobe.d/anaconda.conf before
rebooting.
IFS/
Install/Uninstall
Major When installing the QLogic-Basic (QLogic
OFED+) or QLogic-IFS SW on SLES10 SP3,
there may be conflicts with software that is
already installed on the system. The following
message may appear:
error:
%preun(ofed-1.4.1-0.14.9.x86_64)
scriptlet failed, exit status 1
Manually uninstall the old version OFED before
you install the newer software.
As root, run the following command:
rpm -e --noscripts ofed
Re-run the normal installation.
