Use the Hash utility to confirm the file integrity of your ISO image. Run the following
command and compare the result to the value provided on the download page.
SHA256 MLNX_OFED_LINUX-<ver>-<OS label>.iso
Installing MLNX_OFED
Installation Script
The installation script,
mlnxofedinstall
, performs the following:
Discovers the currently installed kernel
Uninstalls any software stacks that are part of the standard operating system distribution or
another vendor's commercial stack
Installs the MLNX_OFED_LINUX binary RPMs (if they are available for the current kernel)
Identifies the currently installed InfiniBand and Ethernet network adapters and automatically
upgrades the firmware.
Note: The firmware will not be updated if you run the install script with the ‘--without-fw-
update’ option.
Note: If you wish to perform a firmware upgrade using customized FW binaries, you
can provide a path to the folder that contains the FW binary files, by running
--fw-image-
dir
. Using this option, the FW version embedded in the MLNX_OFED package will
be ignored. Example:
./mlnxofedinstall --fw-image-dir /tmp/my_fw_bin_files
Usage
./mnt/mlnxofedinstall [OPTIONS]
The installation script removes all previously installed MLNX_OFED packages and re-installs from
scratch. You will be prompted to acknowledge the deletion of the old packages.
If you need to install MLNX_OFED on an entire (homogeneous) cluster, a common strategy is
to mount the ISO image on one of the cluster nodes and then copy it to a shared file system
such as NFS. To install on all the cluster nodes, use cluster-aware tools (such as pdsh).
If your kernel version does not match with any of the offered pre-built RPMs, you can add
your kernel version by using the “mlnx_add_kernel_support.sh” script located inside the
MLNX_OFED package.
Pre-existing configuration files will be saved with the extension “.conf.rpmsave”.
