Comment 1 Saravanan KR 2018-12-12 11:44:58 UTC

Is it possible it add a patch in the tripleo-puppet-elements if the package is generally available for CentOS and RHEL? If not, it should be a doc recommendation of using virt-customize.

Comment 3 Moshe Levi 2018-12-13 16:41:57 UTC

generally available for Centos/RHEL.

so Should I add it here https://github.com/openstack/tripleo-puppet-elements/blob/master/elements/overcloud-compute/pkg-map?

So what is the resolution here? Do we move this to openstack documentation or we can add libibverbs to here https://github.com/openstack/tripleo-puppet-elements/blob/master/elements/overcloud-compute/pkg-map

Comment 7 Moshe Levi 2019-02-18 08:39:01 UTC

@ Marcelo Ricardo, 
I remember you were against adding this to the overcloud image, I am not sure what was the reason...

Same here. I have the impression too but I can't remember exactly why nor find
a reference to it. Anyway, I think it was mainly to keep benefiting from the weak
dependency provided by the glue library and keep the installation size in check,
as this is a piece of sw that is only required if using Mellanox and only in some
use cases.

need-info on assignee as per comment #6.
