OK, every thing works fine after reboot. Thanks so much for all of your
help. Have a nice day!

Oh, yes. Thanks so much! After uninstall all libibverbs packages, the
OFED-1.5.3-rc5 successfully passed all building process:


Install iscsi-initiator-utils RPM:
Running rpm -iv
/atlas/data18a/litan/OFED-1.5.3-rc5/RPMS/sl-release-5.5-1/x86_64/iscsi-initiator-utils-2.0-869.2.x86_64.rpm

The default IPoIB interface configuration is based on DHCP.
Note that a special patch for DHCP is required for supporting IPoIB.
The patch is available under docs/dhcp
If you do not have DHCP, you must change this configuration in the
following steps.
IPoIB interfaces configured successfully
Press any key to continue ...
Installation finished successfully.
Press any key to continue...

It seems that the IPoIB is not configured due to DHCP issues.

And the OFED tools did not work also:

[litan@tera05 OFED-1.5.3-rc5]$ sudo ibv_devinfo
Failed to get IB devices list: Function not implemented
[litan@tera05 OFED-1.5.3-rc5]$ sudo ibstat
sudo: ibstat: command not found

 Dear all,

I have recompiled the kernel to 2.6.18, and try to install  OFED-1.5.2
instead.

Now the kernel version is

[litan@tera04 OFED-1.5.2]$ uname -a
Linux tera04.ultralight.org 2.6.18-prep #1 SMP Tue Feb 22 18:51:00 EST
2011
x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux


I have the full log file in the attachment. Dose it related to that I
try
many times to install different version of OFED? Thanks a million!
OFED's backport system is rely on kernel version.
So, changing kernel version changes the set of patches and headers to be
used for the compilation.
You should keep the kernel version as close as possible to the original
version.
E.g.:
If you compile 2.6.18 from kernel.org then you can name it 2.6.18-prep
But, if you recompile 2.6.18-164.el5, then you should name it
 2.6.18-164.<any extension>.el5

Regards,
Vladimir
