  • I've put together a solution that gives the scandal machines a good portion of the InfiniBand functionality that we need using Fedora 11, the OFED 1.5 mlx4 and uverbs modules, and libibverbs. I haven't tried any more advanced configurations, but I'll tackle that issue on an as-needed basis.

November 14, 2009 - Saturday

  • Trying to get the OFED InfiniBand kernel modules built and installed on Fedora 11 in an effort to run libibverbs based utilities. (notes)
  • Working with Zheng on a quick-and-dirty virtual Ethernet device for Palacios.

November 03, 2009 - Tuesday

  • OFED 1.4 and Fedora 10 are installed on all the scandal machines
    • Custom net-bootable Linux kernel (2.6.27.35)
    • NFS served single-system-image

October 10, 2009 - Saturday

  • Struggling with OFED installation on Fedora
    • I've installed OFED 1.4 on two scandal machines: watergate and irancontra
    • The latest Fedora updates are preventing OFED 1.4 from installing on Fedora 10
    • Fedora 11 is supposed to be OFED 1.5 supported, but currently I'm having the same problem as Fedora 10
    • I've been working on this problem on and off since this summer and haven't found a decent solution
