2–System Issues for Release 7.0.1
Known Issues
2-8 D000069-024
IFS/
IBAccess
Minor For SLES10 and 11, the --32bit option of
./INSTALL does not work. For individual Red
Hat Package Manager (RPM) installs, SLES10
and 11 do not distinguish between 32-bit and
64-bit RPMs.
Installed RPMs that are 32-bit must be manually
uninstalled first and then the appropriate RPM
for each package (only 64-bit if available) must
be installed.
QLogic recommends using ./INSTALL, which
automatically performs all necessary uninstalls
of old RPMs prior to installing the new 64-bit
RPMs.
IFS/
IBAccess
Minor When using vFabric, the OFED saquery
command may use the wrong P-Key and
timeout waiting for responses.
QLogic recommends using the iba_saquery
tool, which is included with QLogicIB-Basic or
QLogicIB-IFS. iba_saquery will work properly
when vFabric is configured.
IFS/
Open SM
Minor When using opensm, after bouncing ports on a
node, the port may not return to an active state
for a period of time. As a result, commands that
issue an SA query such as OFED's saquery
command, or various FastFabric tools such as
iba_report and iba_saquery, may hang
waiting for the port to become active and the SA
to respond.
Restart opensm.
QLogic recommends using the QLogic Fabric
Manager, which has much greater resiliency
and quicker handling of port state changes.
IFS/
IPoIB
Minor When using vFabric to change an IPoIB
application from Networking to Non-Networking,
the IPoIB interface may remain in a running
state.
After changing the application, restart the
network services or bring the interface down/up
to force IPoIB to re-query the SM and correct
the situation.
