To install InfiniPath and OpenFabrics using rpm:
1.
1.
From the QLogic web site (
), click the Downloads tab.
Locate your adapter model.
2.
After downloading the appropriate tar file, type:
$ tar zxvf QLogicOFED<version>-<distribution>-x86_64.tgz
The tar command creates a directory based on the
tar
file name and
places the RPMs and other files in this directory.
3.
The RPMs must be available on each node on which they will be used. Copy
the RPMs to a directory on each node that will need them.

Log in as a root user, then type:
# cd QLogicOFED<version>-<distribution>-x86_64
Alternately, put the RPMs in a directory that is accessible (for example, via
Network File System (NFS)) to every node.

NOTE:
For convenience, QLogic recommends installing the same set of RPMs
on all nodes (with the exception of OpenSM). Omitting the *-Static/*
on all nodes (with the exception of OpenSM). Omitting the *-Static/*
and *-Debuginfo/* RPMs is recommended. Use the */32bit/*
RPMs only if you need them. Some RPMs are optional, depending on
which type of node is being used. To see which RPMs are required or
optional for each type of node, according to its function as a compute
node, front end node, development machine, or Subnet Manager (SM),

Install the OpenSM RPM only if you do not plan to use a switch-based or
host-based SM. The
OpenSM
RPM is normally installed on the node on
for more information.
Programs that incorporate the user IB Verbs interfaces, such as
diagnostics, benchmarks, Verbs-based MPIs (for example, Intel MPI),
and SDP sockets, must have the OpenFabrics RPMs installed.

Install the infinipath RPM on all nodes where you install the
mpi-frontend RPM.

The mpi-devel and infinipath-devel RPMs are installed when
the qlogic-mpi-register RPM is installed, as there are
dependencies.
Check that all older stock OFED RPMs have been uninstalled (
).
