Hi all

===	I installed OFED 1.2.5 on my InfiniBand connected cluster. but It dosn't work. I want the inifinBand network use  IP 10.0.0.*, so I configure the ofed_net.conf file as follow

LAN_INTERFACE_ib0=eth0
IPADDR_ib0=10.0.0.*
NETMASK_ib0=255.255.255.0
NETWORK_ib0=10.0.0.0
BROADCAST_ib0=10.0.0.255
ONBOOT_ib0=1


=== when I mpdboot on one machine, I got the message

mpdboot_inode01 (handle_mpd_output 359): failed to ping mpd on inode01; recvd output={}

and the /tmp/mpd2_logfile_me is 

logfile for mpd with pid 21779
inode01_32928: mpd_uncaught_except_tb handling:
  exceptions.TypeError: sequence item 0: expected string, int found

    /usr/mpi/gcc/mvapich2-0.9.8-15/bin/mpd.py  240  run
        self.runmainloop()
    /usr/mpi/gcc/mvapich2-0.9.8-15/bin/mpd.py  1344  ?
        mpd.run()


=== PS:	when I start openibd, 

[root at inode01 ~]# /etc/init.d/openibd start

I don't know where the problem is, anyone has a suggestion?
thanks in advance
