When you say "force certain servers over the infiniband network" ...
what exactly do you mean?

What I ENVISION you mean is something conceptually like the following,
where C is a client, S is the server, and networks are - for Ethernet, =
for Infiniband:

 /-C--C--C--C--C--C--C--C--C--C--C
S
 \=C==C==C==C==C==C==C==C==C==C==C

Is this basic understanding correct?

If so, it shouldn't be any problem at all.  *By default*, without you
having to do anything special to make it happen, the machines should
talk using their best routes.  It should Just Work.

What exactly is happening, or not happening, at the moment?
