Phil-
Your exactly right in what you are thinking.  Your diagram is correct, the server has both connections.  Both interfaces run on separate subnets.

But right now, all the traffic runs over ethernet.  Which i have proven with a netstat, only the ethernet shows any connections, no connections are done over infiniband.

Thanks,

Help-

I have a bacula server that has multiple network connections, dual
ethernet and infiniband.  I want the bacula-sd to be able to receive
data from both the ethernet and the infiniband networks.  How is it
possible in the bacula-dir.conf to force certain servers over the
infiniband network, and others (that don't have infiniband) to run
over ethernet.  Or what's the best way to accomplish this?

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?
