All, I'm having an issue with OrangeFS (trunk and v.2.9.5) performance on a cluster with QLogic QLE 7340 HCAs. I set up a file system on 8 nodes after configuring --with-openib and --without-bmi-tcp. I mounted this file system on a 9th node (the client) and wrote a 1 GB file, but the speed was only 13.028 MB/s. If I re-install OrangeFS with TCP I can get 1175.388 MB/s when transferring a 863 GB file on the same nodes.
I also have access to another cluster with Mellanox MX354A HCAs. On this cluster I could get 492.629 MB/s when writing a 1 GB file with OrangeFS/InfiniBand. I'm wondering if there is an issue with BMI on QLogic HCAs. Thanks, Nick Mills Graduate Research Assistant Clemson University
