Thats correct. Not sure why TCP would have been used - unless IB
interfaces weren't up..

Tim -

Just to make sure I"m not losing it - if any of the "high speed" networks is found between peers, tcp shouldn't be used between that pair, right? I was pretty sure that's what the priority code did now, but wanted to make sure I wasn't losing it ;).

Daryl,

Try setting:

-mca btl_base_include self,mvapi

To specify that only lookback (self) and mvapi btls should be used.

Can you forward me the config.log from your build?

Thanks,
Tim

Hi, I've got a dual-homed IB + GigE connected cluster for which I've built a very recent drop of OpenMPI (w/ mvapi support). I'm having difficulty making OMPI solely use native verbs as it's communication between nodes. I've tried all incantations of the following mca parameters to no avail:

  --mca btl_tcp_if_exclude "lo,eth0,eth1,ib0,ib1"
  --mca ptl_tcp_if_include "lo,eth0,eth1,ib0,ib1"

Note I'm putting ib in the list because I really don't wish to use IP/IB; OMPI should be able to communicate at the native verbs level, right? If I leave ib0/1 unconfigured on my host, OMPI uses eth0 for its communication. If I bring up ib0, OMPI uses both eth0 and ib0! Is there any way I can
specify for it to use none of these TCP interfaces?  TIA!

Daryl

P.s.  I can send output of ompi_info if that is helpful.
