Hi.

Have anyone here experienced having VERBS RDMA connection request rejects on 
Scale NSD servers with the error message "ibv_create_qp err 13"?
I'm having issues with this on a IBM ESS system.

The error mostly affects only one of the two GSSIO-nodes, and moves with the 
node even if I put all four of the infiniband links on the same infiniband 
switch as the working node is connected to.
The issue affects client nodes in different blade-chassis, going through 
different Infiniband swithes and cables, and also non-blade nodes running a 
slightly different os-setup and different infiniband HCAs.
MPI-jobs on the client nodes can communicate over the infiniband fabric without 
issues.
Upgrading all switches and HCAs to the latest firmware and making sure that 
client nodes have the same OFED-version as the ESS has had no impact on the 
issue.
When the issue is there, I can still do ibping between the nodes, ibroute gives 
me a working and correct path between the nodes that get connection rejects, 
and if I set up IPoIB, ip traffic works on the afflicted interfaces.

I have opened a PMR with IBM on the issue, so asking here is a parallel track 
for trying to find a solution to this.

Any help or suggestions is appreciated.
Regards,
Andreas Mattsson
