Some additional information on the problem. I tried disconnecting the ethernet connection to the server machine (192.168.1.94) and tried running a disk test on the client (192.168.1.156 via ethernet), writing to what I thought was the IB mounted file system (mount -t lustre [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/lusty /slut, where 192.168.3.50 is
the ip of ib0 on the client machine).
Looking at /var/log/syslog I saw:

Hi,
I have built a simple lustre setup. MDS and OSS are both on a Centos5
machine using the red hat lustre modified kernel
2.6.18-8.1.14.el5_lustre.1.6.4.1 running OFED-1.3.  Lustre is 1.6.4.3.

The client machine is Debian running the same kernel and OFED-1.3 and
lustre 1.6.4.3.

The MDT and OST are both single partitions on the the same disk (yes,
I know this is not optimal...)
The network uses Mellanox ConnectX HCAs running through a Voltaire
ISR2004 switch.

What is you Lustre network configurations (i.e. lnet options)? If not
sure, what's the output of 'lctl list_nids' on the client and the
server?

The basic RDMA setup seems to work in either direction:

Local disk speed on the Lustre server seems fine, as does speed when
the Lustre machine writes
to the Lustre mounted drive (50-80 MB/s).
[EMAIL PROTECTED] slut]$ dd if=/dev/zero of=foo bs=1048576 count=1024
1024+0 records in
1024+0 records out
1073741824 bytes (1.1 GB) copied, 13.5875 seconds, 79.0 MB/s

Performance of the client machine writing to the Lustre drive is poor
(12 MB/s)
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/slut$ mount -t lustre -l
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/lusty on /slut type lustre (rw)

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/slut$ dd if=/dev/zero of=foo bs=1048576 count=1024
1024+0 records in
1024+0 records out
1073741824 bytes (1.1 GB) copied, 88.9857 seconds, 12.1 MB/s

Similar results from using Bonnie++ for the testing.

Any ideas as to what might be going on?
Thanks,
murray
