<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:1.0in"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">Libfabric support multiple providers. Sounds like it was selecting the sockets or tcp provider rather than a provider that support RoCE. I am not exactly sure whether the verbs provider
will do that. If you can confirm the provider using libfabric tests, then you can try forcing MPICH to use that provider by setting the FI_PROVIDER environment variable.</span><o:p></o:p></p>
