The way you deescribe it the problem is not the adapters in itself. In typical setups you give the physical adapters to the VIOS(es), create virtualised adapters for the other LPARs and have the VIOS act as a virtual switch to connect these layers.

You being unable to get outside the system means you probably have got the setup of this part wrong or not at all. You need to set up VLANs both for internal and external networks and "connect" these on the VIOS. See the documentation, especially "SEA" and "HEA", for details about the concepts involved.

I hope this helps.

NAME
scconf_transp_adap_ibd - configure the InfiniBand (ibd) transport adapter DESCRIPTION
Note - Beginning with the Sun Cluster 3.2 release, Sun Cluster software includes an object-oriented command set. Although Sun Cluster software still supports the original command set, Sun Cluster procedural documentation uses only the object-oriented command set. For more infor- mation about the object-oriented command set, see the Intro(1CL) man page. You can configure ibd adapters as cluster transport adapters. These adapters can only be used with transport type dlpi. The ibd adapter connects to an InfiniBand transport switch. The connection is made through a transport cable. When the endpoints of the transport cable are configured by using scconf, scinstall, or other tools, you are asked to specify a port name on the transport switch. You can provide any port name, or accept the default, as long as the name is unique for the switch. The default is to set the port name to the node ID that hosts the adapter at the other end of the cable. There are no user-configurable properties for cluster transport adapters of this type.
