Hi Dotan,

ifconfig shows up

ib0       Link encap:InfiniBand  HWaddr
80:00:00:03:FE:80:00:00:00:00:00:00:00:00:00:00:00:00:00:00
          inet addr: 140.221.37.32  Bcast: 140.221.37.255  Mask:
255.255.255.0
          inet6 addr: fe80::211:7500:ff:d802/64 Scope:Link
          UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST  MTU:65520  Metric:1
          RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
          TX packets:1 errors:0 dropped:5 overruns:0 carrier:0
          collisions:0 txqueuelen:128
          RX bytes:0 (0.0 b)  TX bytes:68 (68.0 b)

does this mean that the apps would now use IPoIB ? How do i tell when IPoIB
is working and when it isnt ? Because I assume when it isnt it would default
to Ethernet ?

It will be great if I can get this cleared.

Thanks
Zulfi
