Yack!


I see your point. I have no defense. My hands have been tied on fixing this properly...

And server will need to listen on different IP address and simple
* will not work since it will need to listen in two different domains.


No, the server will listen on 0.0.0.0:2049 for TCP, and 0.0.0.0:2050 for rdma. The rdma subsystem will translate 0.0.0.0:2050 into listens on specific iwarp ip addresses on every iwarp device...

Had we run this proposal by administrators?

There has been no other solution proposed that Dave Miller and Jeff Garzik won't NAK...
