e. Create an interface for the ibp0 network device with the following properties
by dragging the ibp0.8005 datalink to the interfaces column:
i. In the Name field, enter ib0.8005, where 8005 is the partition key.
ii. In the Configure with field, select Static Address List.
iii. Enter the IPv4 Address/Mask as 0.0.0.0/8.
f. Create an interface for ibp1 called ib1.8005 by performing Step Gather Port
GUIDs of Compute Nodes and BridgeX Ports of Gateway Switches.
g. Bond the interfaces by adding another interface. Click the plus button next to
the Interfaces column and enter the following information:
i. In the Name field, enter a name that denotes the IB partition, such as
IB_IF_8005.
ii. In the Configure with field, select Static Address List.
iii. Enter the IPv4 Address/Mask to configure as the Infiniband device. You
can use any unused IP address. In this example, we will use 192.168.33.15/24.
iv. Check the IP MultiPathing Group box.
10. The network must be configured on the compute node and the share mounted by
following these steps:
a. SSH to a compute node that is a member of the partition as the root user.
b. Determine the active infiniband device by running the following commands
on the compute node:
# ifconfig ib0
# ifconfig ib1
The active device will have non-zero Rx/Tx bytes.
c. Configure the network for the active device by running the following
commands:
# echo 0x8005 > /sys/class/net/ib0/create_child
# ifconfig -a | grep -A6 8005

# ifconfig ib0.8005 192.168.33.15
d.
Unmount any mounted shares using the umount command.
e.
Mount the share from the remote device. Use the IP specified in the
configuration step. In our example we used 192.168.33.15.
# mount 192.168.33.15:/export/share_name /mnt/share_name
f.
Repeat the previous steps for all compute nodes that are members of the
partition.
