Set Up Your Environment 
Keep the following in mind when setting up the environment:
„
The runtime and build environments must be the same. Compatibility 
between executables built on different Linux distributions cannot be 
guaranteed.
„
You will need Administrator privileges on your machines.
„
If you are using the rpm install method, make sure that all previously existing 
(stock) OpenFabrics RPMs are uninstalled. Se
 for more information. The Installer tool 
will automatically uninstall previous RPMs before upgrades.
„
It is possible to have a cluster running with different kernel versions. 
However, QLogic recommends and supports clusters where all nodes run 
equivalent software.
