I don't know why but I had not seen mlnx_ofed_esxi v2.40 until now.
Was unsuccessfully trying with v2.3.3.1 on ESXi 6.0.
So, just to confirm if I understood correctly:
- According to the restrictions you mentioned, it is not possible to assign an Infiniband VF function to a Linux guest in ESXi 6 (hence no IPoIB) ?
- SR-IOV is not available for Connect-IB in ESXi ?
- There is no storage protocol (iSER / SRP) available in OFED 2.4 ?
Many thanks for the detailed information.
