When ifconfig or ifup are run, the error will look similar to this (assuming
ipath_ether was used for eth2):
eth2: error fetching interface information: Device not found
To prevent the error message, remove the following files (assuming
ipath_ether was used for eth2):
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth2 (for RHEL)
/etc/sysconfig/network/ifcfg-eth-eth2 (for SLES)
QLogic recommends using the IP over InfiniBand protocol (IPoIB-CM), included in
the standard OpenFabrics software releases, as a replacement for
ipath_ether.
