Anyone else running AMD Epyc (or any other non Intel CPU) and Omni-Path?
I've have some AMD Epyc 7451 nodes working, but I went to buy more only to hear
that it's not a configuration that the vendor or Intel will support.
I've never needed support from Mellanox or Pathscale/Qlogic/Intel for previous
generation infiniband cards/switches. Generally we compile our own ofed,
libpsm, libpsm2, openmpi, mvapich, mpich, and any other related pieces we need.
There is of course the risk that some AMD specific issue hits a larger Omni-Path
configuration (we are considering 40 nodes or so).
Any thoughts appreciated.
