Hi Elias, Sorry, this slipped through my mind! I do not have any Cx6 to test (I think we should receive some in CSIT at some point), but as it seems to complain about the QP type 8 which is supposed to be the ethernet queue type, can you check if your adapter supports Ethernet and if so, if it is set to Ethernet and not IB? You might need to use some mlx tools to query/change settings in the card fw.
