Re: ESXi 5.5 & IB Dual Port Card card showing just a sinlge vmnic

Hi! Because Infiniband fabric require Subnet Manager.

If you connect direct between each hosts, one of host must have a active SM.

If not IPoIB can link-up. IPoIB is a also ULP of Infiniband that require SM

too!

If you install a Ethernet driver, your HCA can link-up without SM.

But your HCA never shows a Infiniband's features.
