[libfabric-users] Failure of fi_getinfo with verbs backend

[Ilango, Arun]

Can you run with the environment variable FI_LOG_LEVEL set to "debug" and share the output? That may offer some clues as to why this fails.

Thanks,
Arun.

Hmmm... odd.  Is the sockets provider installed as well?  I'm surprised that doesn't return anything either.

Is the server side running on a different system, or are you just running as a server on the same system?
