InfiniBand is a network architecture for the large-scale interconnection of computing and I/O nodes through a high-speed switched fabric. To operate InfiniBand on an Oracle server, you need an InfiniBand HCA (the adapter) and an InfiniBand software stack.
Note - An InfiniBand software stack is part of the Oracle Linux OS distribution.
Refer to your Linux vendor for software installation recommendations and support.
