Dear all, as I am not the great expert when it comes down to InfiniBand, I was wondering whether somebody could give me some advice here whether that is possible what I want to do or not.
I got some older dual Mellanox Technologies MT23108 cards (8.5 Gb/sec (4X)) and currently I am only using one of the two ports on them. I was wondering, is it possible with InfiniBand to utilise the second port in such a way that I can increase the bandwith of the network (and lower the latency maybe)? I am not talking about IPoIB here, I am talking about pure InfiniBand. I am using OpenMPI 1.6.5 on that cluster and I got a Voltaire sLB-24 switch. Let me know if you require any more informations here. I simply would make a bit more out of an old machine which is being used in teaching and some research. All the best from a sunny London Jörg -- ************************************************************* Dr. Jörg Saßmannshausen, MRSC University College London Department of Chemistry Gordon Street London WC1H 0AJ email: j.sassmannshau...@ucl.ac.uk web: http://sassy.formativ.net Please avoid sending me Word or PowerPoint attachments.
