minism is insufficient for running IPoIB. You need a full SM. I do not
believe there is a host based SM for the Voltaire stack although I'm not
100% about whether OpenSM in some configuration works over the Voltaire
stack.

So what I would recommend is not a back to back configuration for doing
this. Either add in a switch with an embedded SM, or a switch without an
embedded SM and another end node which would run an SM. Is that possible
?
