Does anybody have any experience in building a rocks
cluster using infiniband to connect the compute nodes to the
head node (where my storage array is)? Generally, you create
a private network for communication between everything but I'm
wondering if it works the same way using infiniband? I know
you can assign the infiniband adapters IP addresses but is
this the best way to do things? Does that mean I need to buy
an infiniband switch? Any suggestions on hardware to use
and/or setup/configuration advice?
Thanks,
Bill
