How to verify the application is running on WSD or IPOIB • Open task manager and select network tab • Run the application • Look at the network performance charts for the Infiniband interface o If you see network traffic that means your application is running on IPOIB o If no there is no network traffic on the performance monitor while the application is running that means it runs over WSD • Open WSD performance counter - refer to windows GridStack™ the user manual 9. What to do when my application is not working on WSD • Run vstat command and verify the HCA is running with the latest firmware • Disable WSD and run the application on IPOIB o To disable WSD run the command installsp.exe -r o To restore WSD run the command installsp.exe -i • Open WSD logs • Run different app on WSD to test that WSD is functional.
