Lustre discuss - Nov 2011 - why lctl list_nids ? IOC_LIBCFS_GET_NI error 100: Network is down

hi all :
           I am new for lustre  .  After I installed lustre , I  tested a
simple case and successful . But when I want to try it again a few time
later after  rebooting my computer.

           I got the error like this :

           lctl list_nids

           IOC_LIBCFS_GET_NI error 100: Network is down


          here is my /etc/modprobe.conf:

options lnet networks=eth0
alias eth0 bnx2
alias eth1 bnx2
alias scsi_hostadapter mptbase
alias scsi_hostadapter1 mptsas
alias scsi_hostadapter2 usb-storage


can anyone know this?

Try changing this to:

options lnet networks=tcp0(eth0)

also dmesg and /var/log/messages is usually pretty informative when
things go wrong at startup.
