Hello all,
I was wondering if anyone has any experience working with Infiniband and Houdini. I have recently purchased two Voltaire HCA700ex2-q Infiniband cards (40Gb/ps) and have them connected via a Mellanox 40Gb capable fiber qsfp+ cable. I've already upgraded the firmware on both cards to the newest available version. And both cards can see each other and I am able to set up and transfer files between them using shared drives in Windows 7 Professional x64. (I will be trying this next in CentOS 7) What my question is: how do I get the two computers to see each other in Hqueue so that I can use my faster Infiniband connection rather than my much slower gigabit Ethernet connection which is getting fully saturated during distributed fluid sims. Do I need to edit the client information in some way to use the IP from the Infiniband card (cards are capable of 10Gb/ps IPoIB)?
Thanks,
Ryan
