[Lustre-discuss] Using ib0 and tcp

Howdy.

Newbie here.     I have Lustre 1.6.6. setup and running.     For the 
network, we have eth0 and eth1 bonded (channel bonding) and we also have 
Infiniband (SilverStorm).

 /etc/modprobe.conf file looks like this:
alias bond0 bonding
options bond0 mode=balance-alb miimon=100
options lnet networks=o2ib(ib0),tcp(bond0)

Lctl on one of my OSS's shows my network as:
# lctl list_nids
10.1.1.129 at o2ib
172.16.1.129 at tcp

How can I get Lustre to use both ib0 and bond0 (eth0 / eth1) for the 
data nework?     Currently it only uses Infiband (ib0) and not bond0.

Thanks,
Joseph
