Hi Pharthiphan,

I am not sure if your issue is still relevant as it was posted on 6/11, however what Mellanox OFED Drivers did you installed and have you validated the FW version/compatibility?

You can download the MFT package from the following link:

Mellanox Firmware Tools (MFT) Mellanox Firmware Tools (MFT)

To query the FW:

#mst start

#mst status -v

#flint -d q

Note: Check based on the RN of the Drivers that the FW is supported/compatible. If not, I would suggest to align the FW to a supported version.

Sophie.
