Yep. That is the conclusion that we came to also. A work around for now, one can just remove the arping check in ifup if the device is an ib device. Not perfect, but allows it to work for ib devices and the normal ifcfg-xxxx scripts. Something like, if [ "x`echo ${REALDEVICE} | sed -e "s/^ib.//"`" != "x" ]; then if ! arping -q -c 2 -w 3 -D -I ${REALDEVICE} ${IPADDR} ; then echo $"Error, some other host already uses address ${IPADDR}." exit 1 fi fi woody _______________________________________________ openib-general mailing list openib-general@openib.org http://openib.org/mailman/listinfo/openib-general To unsubscribe, please visit http://openib.org/mailman/listinfo/openib-general
