I have done the following test, According to the below test, it reaching 1869.74 MB/sec.
This is the command I used for benchmarking.
# mpiexec -machinefile machs1 -np 1024 IOR -N 1024 -a MPIIO -t 1024K -b 1G -F -v -o /mnt/file1
Max Write: 421.31 MiB/sec (441.77 MB/sec)
Max Read: 1029.68 MiB/sec (1079.70 MB/sec)
***
1. In the aboove command I used MPIIO with 1024 process, I got the almost same result when I fired same command with 512 process
2. I tested with stripe and without stripe with both the apis MPIIO and POSIX

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

Dear All,
Whats the maximum write speed can be achieved with Infiniband QDR HCA card.
The Question arised from my lustre setup where Iam not able to exceed 500MB/s (write speed) with two OSSs and one MDS
Each OSS has four OSTs and one HCA card. I would like to know which is the bottleneck here.
I have been using IOR for benchmarking
Thank you
