Question

Hi I am trying to install a fairly lengthy script to install infiniband and the OFED stack on rocks cluster 6.0

here is what i try to run

 user@cluster # /etc/init.d/openibd restart
    /etc/init.d/openibd: line 147: syntax error near unexpected token `;&'
    /etc/init.d/openibd: line 147: `if ( grep -i 'SuSE Linux' /etc/issue >/dev/null 2>&1 ); then'

can any one share with me a fix or can identify a way to fix the error in this script?
in the file /etc/init.d/openibd

here is the part of the script which contains the error on the indicated line.

CONFIG="/etc/infiniband/openib.conf"

if [ ! -f $CONFIG ]; then

echo No InfiniBand configuration found

exit 0

fi

. $CONFIG

CWD=`pwd`

cd /etc/infiniband

WD=`pwd`

PATH=$PATH:/sbin:/usr/bin

if [ -e /etc/profile.d/ofed.sh ]; then

. /etc/profile.d/ofed.sh

fi

# Only use ONBOOT option if called by a runlevel directory.

# Therefore determine the base, follow a runlevel link name ...

base=${0##*/}

link=${base#*[SK][0-9][0-9]}

# ... and compare them

if [ $link == $base ] ; then

RUNMODE=manual

ONBOOT=yes

else

RUNMODE=auto

fi

ACTION=$1

shift

RESTART=0

max_ports_num_in_hca=0

# Check if OpenIB configured to start automatically

if [ "X${ONBOOT}" != "Xyes" ]; then

exit 0

fi

### ERROR ON FOLLOWING LINE ###
if ( grep -i 'SuSE Linux' /etc/issue >/dev/null 2>&1 ); then

if [ -n "$INIT_VERSION" ] ; then

# MODE=onboot

if LANG=C egrep -L "^ONBOOT=['\"]?[Nn][Oo]['\"]?" ${CONFIG} > /dev/null

; then

exit 0

fi

fi

fi

You’ve got some HTML encoding going on their you need to fix.

Replace > with >, and replace & with &.
