I have three servers with VMware 6.7 update 2 that do not work with my Connectx-3 cards. I tried following some articles about installing version 1.83 of the drivers onto ESX, but the instructions don't work on 6.7, maybe they only work on 6.5? Has anyone gotten Connectx-3 working on vmware 6.7?

The ESX drivers provided by Mellanox are very version specific. You'll need to wait for them to produce a new driver package for 6.7u2, or stick with the version you have.

They only support the Connectx4-5, not the 3 anymore. There was a way at least under 6.5 to install the older version, but I Followed instructions on this site, now it failes due to missing com.vmware.driverAPI-9.2.0.0 and vmkapi_2_0_0_0
