A system to facilitate resolving traffic congestion in a network switching fabric is described. The system includes a processor and a machine readable medium storing instructions that, when executed, cause the processor to receive a notification from a virtual connect switch indicating that a congestion condition has been detected in remote direct memory access (RDMA) over Converged Ethernet (RoCE) data traffic flowing from a first end point to a second end point via a first of a plurality of paths between the first end point and the second end point, identify a second of the plurality of paths between the first end point and the second end point and modify the RoCE data traffic to flow from the first end point to the second end point via the second path.
