Hi All,
   I am trying to install pvfs2 2.6.0 over infiniband.I am using pathscales
infinipath adapter.
   make and make install works fine and also the storage space gets
created.I have configured it to use ib(infiniband.)
   But when I try to run the servers normally they exit abnormally.The log
says that ib is unsupported protocol.
   Is pathscale's infinipath support not enabled in pvfs2, or should I go
with TCP and use layered ethernet driver for inifinipath.
   Below is my log:
