[Lustre-discuss] max write speed of QDR HCA card

[Atul Vidwansa]

Hi Lakshmana,

You can use standard ofed tools like ib_rdma_bw to check Infiniband  
bandwidth between pair of nodes.

Lustre provides lnet selftest tool for measuring IB bandwidth between  
pair or group of nodes. Check lustre manual for how tos.

Finally, can you post IOR parameters you are using?

Cheers,
Atul
