Hi Galen,

The GigE is on the ESB2.  This lives on a 4GB/sec link to the MCH.
I believe we aren't really running close to the I/O bandwidth limit.

This MPI transfer uses both the ports as there are increment in RX and TX bytes
of both eth0 and eth1. But I am getting the same bandwidth with or without using "--mca btl_tcp_if_include eth0" in the mpirun command line. Are we missing something? Or I have to go for linux ethernet channel bonding?

Regards,
Jayanta

Jayanta,

What is your bus on this machine? If it is PCI-X 133 you are going to be
limited, also memory bandwidth could also be the bottleneck.

Thanks,

Galen

Hi,

In between two nodes I have dual Gigabit ethernet full duplex links. I was
doing benchmarking using non-blocking MPI send and receive. But I am
getting only speed corresponds to one Gigabit ethernet full duplex link
(< 2Gbps). I have checked using ifconfig, this transfer is using both the
ports, then why I am not getting full throughput from dual Gigabit
ethernet ports? Can anyone please help me in this?

Regards,
Jayanta
