+    mount the NFS/RDMA server.

+    If you have nfs-utils version 1.1.1, use this command:
 
     > /path/to/your/mount.nfs <IPoIB-server-name-or-address>:/<export> /mnt -i -o rdma,port=2050
 
+    If you have nfs-utils version 1.1.2 or later, use this command (the "-i" flag is no longer

+    available):
+
+    > /path/to/your/mount.nfs <IPoIB-server-name-or-address>:/<export> /mnt -o rdma,port=2050

     To verify that the mount is using RDMA, run "cat /proc/mounts" and check the
     "proto" field for the given mount.
