<P><FONT SIZE=2>If you would like to connect to InfiniBand HCA cards - </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>All you need to do is </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>1. attach an IB cable between them</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>2. have IB stack running on each one of the machines (might be any stack you want)</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>3. have an SM run on one of the machines.</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2>My proposal is that depending on the kernel you have installed on the machines install OpenIB (if 2.6.11 or 2.6.12) stack or Mellanox IBGD or others (for the rest)</FONT></P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2>And then start OpenSM. </FONT>
