The VF’s IB GID is derived from the MAC address. I don’t know the implication of modifying the MAC address even if it’s modifiable.

Can you elaborate on what the IMDS output is?

Mellanox is looking into creating a driver for us so that we can expose the VF using DDA instead of using the vSwitch. This will eliminate the duplicate MAC issue for sure, but there is no estimate on when this would be released.

There is info on how to reproduce this issue in the Salesforce case.
