The solution in this case turned out to be super simple... I was just using the wrong file. :D It should have been /etc/sysctl.conf for the settings. Adding this in there worked for the initial port mode setup: # Ensure the IB card is in IB mode sys.device.mlx4_core0.mlx4_port1="ib" sys.device.mlx4_core0.mlx4_port2="ib" Apologies for the noise. ;) Regards and best wishes, Justin Clift -- "My grandfather once told me that there are two kinds of people: those who work and those who take the credit.
