[openib-general] Specifying subnet prefix to OpenSM?

I have 2 test machines, each with two HCAs. One HCA on each node is
plugged into a switch, the other two HCAs are connected back to back.
The goal is to get two different subnets, one for each pair of HCAs.
Currently I am using "opensm --guid" in order to run OpenSM on the
each HCA/Port 0. The problem is that I also want these two subnets to
appear distinct in some fashion. I am querying the subnet via:
ibv_query_gid(hca->ib_dev_context, port_num, 0, &gid);
subnet = ntoh64(gid.global.subnet_prefix);
Not sure if this is the correct thing to do, but this is what I am
doing ;-).
So, is there a way to specify the subnet prefix to OpenSM? Is there
some other method that I can use to determine that the subnets are
distinct?
Thanks,
Galen
