  • System was a centos 6.5 base image that was deployed with IML
  • Intel Agent repo was installed as part of the IML deployment
  • No mellanox drivers for the ethernet cards was provided


Copy across the Mellanox Bundle

  scp mlnx-en-2.3-1.0.0.tgz oss7:
  ssh oss7
  tar zxvf mlnx-en-2.3-1.0.0.tgz

Install the required dev tools

  • Make sure you are running the lustre kernel (should be after IML is deployed)
[root@oss7 ~]# uname -a
Linux oss7.cm.cluster 2.6.32-431.20.5.el6_lustre.x86_64 #1 SMP Fri Jul 25 16:51:42 PDT 2014 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
  • Then add the dev tools
yum -y install kernel-devel-2.6.32-431.20.5.el6_lustre.x86_64 kernel-headers-2.6.32-431.20.5.el6_lustre.x86_64
yum groupinstall 'Development tools'

Install the Mellanox Driver

  • Assuming youre in the directory where the MLNX bundle was untarred
[root@oss7 ~]$ cd mlnx-en-2.3-1.0.0
[root@oss7 mlnx-en-2.3-1.0.0]$ ./install.sh
