Is there some way to specify that an alias can refer to two different mx endpoints so that we can tell PVFS2 which MX board is the localhost interface? (when I have both "eth3" and "lo" boards attached in Open-MX, I wind up with e.g. begbie:0 for "eth3" and begbie:1 for "lo"). I've tried changing the configuration line to "Alias begbie mx://begbie:0:3 mx://begbie:1:3" but that gives a config error. I had previously searched the documentation and list archive for a way to do this, but found nothing much except a note that one could not attach two MX boards on the same server (something I actually would like to do since I have two 10Gbe cards in each server). Please let me know if I've missed something about how I can tell PVFS2 to use the localhost interface -- if it is documented somewhere, I've managed to miss it despite lots of looking!

Hi Josh,

PVFS doesn't have this functionality, sorry. It expects to be able to use the same addressing information on any node.
