etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-ethn<br />
Edit /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-ethn, where n specifies the ethernet port number, usually 0 <strong>for</strong> the<br />
first on-board port. If your workstation has an add-on ethernet card installed, the Linux operating system<br />
may assign ports eth0 through eth3 to the add-on card. In such a case, the on-board Ethernet ports become<br />
eth4 <strong>and</strong> eth5.<br />
Optionally set the GATEWAY if not set in /etc/sysconfig/network.<br />
Sample snippet from file:<br />
DEVICE="eth0"<br />
BOOTPROTO="static"<br />
IPADDR="192.168.1.100"<br />
NETMASK="255.255.0.0"<br />
ONBOOT="yes"<br />
GATEWAY=192.168.0.1<br />
You'll need the following from your network administrator:<br />
■ A unique static IP address <strong>and</strong> host name <strong>for</strong> your system<br />
■ The network gateway IP address.<br />
■ The subnet mask of your network.<br />
■ DNS server IP address(es).<br />
Configure an InfiniB<strong>and</strong> card<br />
If the card was not present when you last ran the DKU installation, run it again to setup the drivers <strong>for</strong> the<br />
card. After changing the configuration, you must reboot <strong>for</strong> them to take effect.<br />
If your workstation is equipped witha Mellanox QDR InfiniB<strong>and</strong> / 10 GigE adapter card, or a QLogic 9000<br />
DDR InfiniB<strong>and</strong> adapter card, per<strong>for</strong>m the procedures in this section to configure the IP address of the<br />
Infini|B<strong>and</strong> port.<br />
Mellanox QDR InfiniB<strong>and</strong> / 10 GigE adapter card<br />
■ Settings are stored in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-ib0<br />
■ You can update the file by running, as root, the script /usr/discreet/DKU/InfiniB<strong>and</strong>/ofed/install.pl<br />
■ You may need to edit the IP address, netmask, broadcast address <strong>and</strong> base network address.<br />
QLogic DDR InfiniB<strong>and</strong> card<br />
■ Settings are stored in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-ib1<br />
■ You can update the file by running, as root, the script /sbin/iba_config<br />
■ You may need to edit the IP address.<br />
Install the DKU <strong>and</strong> the AJA OEM-2K firmware<br />
Check the DKU version<br />
In a terminal, as root, check the currently installed DKU version with the comm<strong>and</strong> head -n1<br />
/etc/DKUversion. If the version does not meet the requirements <strong>for</strong> the new application version, install the<br />
DKU.<br />
