32 bit platforms are no longer supported in MLNX_OFED
For RPM-based distributions, to install OFED on a different kernel, create a new ISO image using mlnx_add_kernel_support.sh script (see the MLNX_OFED User Manual for instructions)
Upgrading MLNX_OFED on a cluster requires upgrading all of its nodes to the newest version as well
If using MLNX_OFED 4.9 LTS with MLNX_OFED 5.x with upstream verbs, MLNX_OFED 4.9 must be installed with
--upstream-libsflag so the verbs libraries match.A combination of 4.9 LTS default verbs and MOFED 5.x upstream verbs is not supported.
All operating systems listed above are fully supported in Paravirtualized and SR-IOV environments with Linux KVM Hypervisor
