InfiniPath and OpenFabrics RPMs

If you are using the rpm method, QLogic recommends installing all RPMs on all

nodes, with the exception of the *-Static/*, *-Debuginfo/*, and *32bit/*

RPMs.

Some RPMs are optional. Since cluster nodes can be used for different functions,
it is possible to selectively install RPMs. For example, you can install the opensm

package for use on the node that will act as a subnet manager. If you want to
selectively install the RPMs, see the following tables for a comparison of required
and optional packages.

To generate a list of the InfiniPath software package contents on each RPM, type:

$ rpm -qlp rpm_file_name
