Hi, Nate.
You asked, “can LNET be easily configured to go over the @tcp connection when the @o2ib flakes out?”
Yes, you can use LNet Multi-Rail for it and that _is_ covered in the “fine manual”, chapter 16 ☺

Hi All,
I've recently been having a bunch of LNET over Infiniband connection-lost/-restored errors and am trying to find the cause and/or tune the system to better cope. There is a lot of stuff on the wiki ( https://wiki.lustre.org/Lustre_Resiliency:_Understanding_Lustre_Message_Loss_and_Tuning_for_Resiliency<https://wiki.lustre.org/Lustre_Resiliency:_Understanding_Lustre_Message_Loss_and_Tuning_for_Resiliency>), but that's from 2016, and I don't know what parts are superseded. I'm currently running Lustre 2.12.5 on CentOS 7.8, with a mix of Q-Logic/Intel QDR and Mellanox EDR HCAs and switches (using CentOS in-box RDMA/opensm).
Is there a better place to look (e.g. the fine manual, section X) for guidance? I've done a few searches on the Jira, but the most similar errors should have already been fixed in earlier releases.
Assuming that there is actually some impending hardware issue, can LNET be easily configured to go over the @tcp connection when the @o2ib flakes out?
Thanks,
Nate
