Manual infiniband installation - ib_sdp not found

user9089534Jan 30 2012 — edited Jan 31 2012
I've asked oracle support for a guide on how to do this but they aren't being helpful. Before upgrading to 2.6.32-300.7.1.el5uek I had to remove all the infiniband drivers now I'm trying to get it working again. Everything worked previously.

Installing all the ofed packages manually results in this error when starting openib:
/etc/init.d/openibd start
Loading OpenIB kernel modules:FATAL: Module ib_sdp not found.

Failed to load module [FAILED]


Next, I tried building iso using the ofed script: ./mlnx_add_kernel_support.sh -i /root/MLNX_OFED_LINUX-1.5.3-3.0.0-rhel5.5-x86_64.iso
It fails with:

Note: This program will create MLNX_OFED_LINUX ISO for rhel5.5 under /tmp directory.
All Mellanox, OEM, OFED, or Distribution IB packages will be removed.
Do you want to continue?[y/N]:y
See log file /tmp/mlnx_ofed_iso.16910.log

Building OFED RPMs...

ERROR: Failed executing "MLNX_OFED_SRC-1.5.3-3.0.0/install.pl -c /tmp/mlnx_iso.16910/ofed.conf --kernel 2.6.32-300.7.1.el5uek --kernel-sources /lib/modules/2.6.32-300.7.1.el5uek/build/ --builddir /tmp/mlnx_iso.16910 --disable-kmp"

Any help is greatly appreciated. I would love for someone to point me to a manual that includes all these installation takes, including how to build the sdp module for your kernel.
