We've done this in our environment. Use confignetwork to set up your 100G NID first then, the key is to use setroute to add a route to continue to talk to the xcat master over the original boot interface, otherwise, xcat gets requests from an unknown node.

I need to boot the node from the 1g interface (BIOS doesn't support booting from the Mellanox HBA) then switch over to using the 100G after the node is booted. I believe that I have seen this type of request in the past. Anyone out their doing this that can provide some knowledge on how you were able to accomplish this? Thanks, Jeff
