Example: The following command will create a MLNX_OFED_LINUX ISO image for
RedHat 7.3 under the /tmp directory.
The script adds the following lines to /etc/security/limits.conf for the userspace
components such as MPI:
* soft memlock unlimited
* hard memlock unlimited
These settings set the amount of memory that can be pinned by a
userspace application to unlimited. If desired, tune the value unlimited to
a specific amount of RAM.
For your machine to be part of the InfiniBand/VPI fabric, a Subnet Manager must be
running on one of the fabric nodes. At this point, OFED for Linux has already installed the
OpenSM Subnet Manager on your machine.
For the list of installation options, run:
