This is true to some degree. There are some things in InfiniBand (like immediate data, atomics, UD mode) that are not in iWarp, so if you want to write a verbs application that will run over either transport, you need to take some care to only use the verbs features that are common to both. _______________________________________________ ewg mailing list ewg@lists.openfabrics.org http://lists.openfabrics.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/ewg
