 Notes:
-* If the bondX name is defined but one of bondX_SLAVES or bondX_IPs is missing,
-  then that specific bond will not be created.
-* The bondX name must not contain characters which are disallowed for bash
-  variable names such as '.' and '-'
 * Using /etc/infiniband/openib.conf to create a persistent configuration is
-  deprecated and not recommended. Use it unless you have no other option and
-  prefer the standard way. It is not guaranteed that the first method will be
-  supported in future versions of OFED.
