Thank you for your reply, Reese!
> What version of GM are you running?
# rpm -qa |egrep "^gm-[0-9]+|^gm-devel"
gm-2.0.24-1
gm-devel-2.0.24-1
Is this too old?

Yes, that was the issue - bad cable connection to my compute node
prevented it from being seen on the fabric :( Thanks for pointing this
out for me.

Could you elaborate on the mapping issues you mentioned? What are they?
> Why GM instead of MX, by the way?
We have a few MX cards in-house, but no MX switch due to its current
market price. So we're only able to perform MX testing using
direct-connection cables, which is not very exciting :) On the
contrary, we've already had GM boards and a switch and found it
sufficient for OpenMPI testing purposes. Would be great to upgrade to
MX in the near future.
Thank you very much for your help.
Sincerely,
Alex.
