Hi,

We are using OFED 1.4.2 and trying to simulate the effect of a bonding failover initiated by a switch failure using echo commands in parallel to the /sys/class/net/bond0/bonding/active_slave file on a few of the nodes attached to the switch. Is this an acceptable technique? We are trying to avoid actually resetting the switch to avoid affecting other nodes connected to the same switch, since the other nodes are being used for other purposes.

Would there be any difference in terms of the codepath which the bonding
driver/ofed stack follows when we do this as opposed to resetting the
switch?
