infinipath-psm-2.9-926.1005_open.1.el6.x86_64.rpm missing udev rules

Solution Verified - Updated -

Issue

  • The infinipath package is missing the udev rules that are needed to make the psm devices
  • In addition to the 4 library files in the infinipath dir, they also need a /etc/udev/rules.d/60-ipath.rules file with:
KERNEL=="ipath", MODE="0666"
KERNEL=="ipath[0-9]*", MODE="0666"
KERNEL=="ipath_*", MODE="0600"
KERNEL=="kcopy[0-6][0-9]", NAME="kcopy/%02n", MODE="0666"
  • When a normal user would attempt to run an mpi application using the psm transport btl, it would fail due to inability to open /dev/ipath* files
