4.1.3 Installing Mellanox OFED
4.1.3.1 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 Mellanox 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 Mellanox OFED packages and re-installs from scratch. You will be prompted to
acknowledge the deletion of the old packages.
If you need to install Mellanox 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.
The “mlnx_add_kernel_support.sh” script can be executed directly from the mlnxofedinstall script. For further
information, please see '--add-kernel-support' option below.
Pre-existing configuration files will be saved with the extension “.conf.rpmsave”.
On Redhat and SLES distributions with errata kernel installed there is no need to use the
mlnx_add_kernel_support.sh script. The regular installation can be performed and weak updates mechanism will
create symbolic links to the MLNX_OFED kernel modules.
On Ubuntu and Debian distributions drivers installation use Dynamic Kernel Module Support (DKMS) framework.
Thus, the drivers' compilation will take place on the host during MLNX_OFED installation. Therefore, using
"mlnx_add_kernel_support.sh" is irrelevant on Ubuntu and Debian distributions.
