+ Installation instructions for Parallel HDF5
+ -------------------------------------------
+ (last updated: Feb 15, 1998)
+
+This file contains instructions for the installation of parallel
+HDF5. Platforms supported by this release are SGI Origin 2000
+and IBM SP2. The steps are kind of unnatural and will be more
+automized in the next release. If you have difficulties installing
+the software in your system, please send mail to
+ hdfparallel@ncsa.uiuc.edu
+
+First, you must obtain and unpack the HDF5 source as
+described in the file INSTALL. You also need to obtain the
+information of the include and library paths of MPI and MPIO
+software installed in your system since the parallel HDF5 library
+uses them for parallel I/O access.
+
+For an IBM SP2 system, follow the instructions in INSTALL.ibm.sp.parallel.
+For an SGI Origin 2000 system, use the following shell commands. (The
+one shown here is what works in the NCSA O2K machine in which MPI library
+is installed in system area but no official MPIO software is available.
+I use a private installation of ROMIO for it.)
+
+mpi1_inc="" #mpi-1 include
+mpi1_lib="" #mpi-1 library
+mpio_inc="-I$HOME/ROMIO/include" #mpio include
+mpio_lib="-L$HOME/ROMIO/lib/IRIX64/" #mpio library
+
+MPI_INC="$mpi1_inc $mpio_inc"
+export MPI_INC
+MPI_LIB="$mpi1_lib $mpio_lib"
+export MPI_LIB
