[Lustre-discuss] routing between infiniband and TCP networks

[John White]

If your OSS/MDS nodes have an extra GigE interface that can route to  
the clients you want to attach via tcp, just set it up as a second  
interface (ie: each MDS/OSS has both o2ib0 and tcp0).  Works quite  
nicely, setup only requires some minor edits to modprobe.conf and  
doesn't require wasting a node on routing.
