Abstract
A method, computer program product and computer system achieves full-mesh connectivity between any two domains in a multi-domain computing environment such as an Infiniband or Converged Ethernet environment. A connection between two domains is established using a single connection management identifier, and private payloads in connection management datagrams, to drive full-duplex connectivity over a pair of half-duplex connections. The half-duplex connections are established using one connection request, and one connection ID object. A connection management object interfaces between the two connected domains. The connection management object handles communications across the half-duplex connections while the connected applications operate as if they are communicating over a full-duplex connection.
