I'm trying to get ib0 devices configured and thanks to xcat online
documents I have come up with:



   -

   chdef n101 nichostnamesuffixes.ib0=-ib
   -

   chdef n101 nicips.ib0=172.1.0.101
   -

   chdef n101 nicnetworks.ib0=172_1_0_0-255_255_0_0
   -

   chdef n101 nictypes.ib0=Infiniband
   -

   chdef n101 -p postscripts=”confignics”


This all works and ib0 comes up with the correct IP address but it is in
DATAGRAM mode. I'd like to change it to CONNECTED mode. To do this I tried:


   - chdef n101 nicextraparams=CONNECTED_MODE=yes



​This is just a guess based on what I found in the source code and from
emails on the developers list. After setting this the nic table has an
entry that looks promising but when I boot the node it still is in Datagram
mode and there is nothing in the ifcfg-ib0 file trying to set it to
Connected mode.

Can someone point me to what I need for that last line?

Thanks a lot.

Steve ​
