Your previous results have shown a particular pair of nodes not able to communicate via IB. Have you tested this particular pair ? Also tests between each of these nodes and another node ? > One thing came to mind: when I am disabling the TCP network, does that mean > that the lifeline will be also over the IB network or does OpenMPI still uses > the TCP network to connect to the other nodes and then uses the IB network for > the communication? OpenMPI always uses TCP for the inter-node lifeline, from what I know. The selected BTLs are used to move data bytes around, but the lifeline is not considered as moving data. The messages you've shown come from the BTL selection, the lifeline is not involved here.
