I am working on upgrading my current ethernet only ceph cluster to a
combined ethernet frontend and infiniband backend. From my research I
understand that I set:

ms_cluster_type = async+rdma
ms_async_rdma_device_name = mlx4_0

What I don't understand is how does ceph know how to reach each OSD over
RDMA? Do I have to run IPoIB on top of infiniband and use that for OSD
addresses?

Is there a way to use infiniband on backend without IPoIB and just use rdma
verbs?
