When you change major RHEL release # and OFED version #, it's a pretty safe bet 
that you would need to rebuild Open MPI.

P.S.  There was no Open Fabrics OFED 2.4   (Release #s jumped from 1.5 to 3.5) 
, so I guess this is a Mellanox OFED 2.4.

Subject: [OMPI users] OpenMPI build and OFED versions - rebuild necessary?

On RHEL 5 hosts which have OFED 1.5 installed, we have builds of OpenMPI 1.4.5 
and 1.6.5 in place.

On RHEL 6 hosts we have OFED 2.4 installed.  Will we need to rebuild OpenMPI 
1.4.5 and 1.6.5, or can our existing builds of such still work on the RHEL 6 
hosts?
