It can use librdmacm, but it doesn't have to (and doesn't by default). librdmacm uses its own internal communications -- I'm not sure what transport layer it uses. By default, however, OMPI uses a TCP-based connection mechanism. -- Jeff Squyres jsquy...@cisco.com For corporate legal information go to: http://www.cisco.com/web/about/doing_business/legal/cri/
